Parmigiano-Reggiano as a delicious, full-flavored eating cheese. It began life
seven centuries ago in the Italian provinces of Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena, part
of Bologna and part of Mantua. Nature blessed this zone with the most idealistic
Cattle grazing land to create the unique milk from the "Zone Tripica". The local
cheese craftsmen took it from there, utilizing a totally natural process that has not
changed for 700 years. No additives, no machinery, no gimmicks. Just sweet, fresh
milk in its pristine state, the artisan's ancient skills, and then nature's own good
time (aged from 18 to 36 months). Parmigiano Reggiano Stravecchio is aged a full
36 months. At this age, it has a deeper, golden color, and has even more crunchy
crystals. Full and fruity with a slightly salty tang, this cheese should be served in
chunks with figs or pears or as an appetizer with aperitifs.
Made from unpasteurized cow's milk.
