Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese

Parmigiano Reggiano is Italy’s most famous cheese, if not the World’s most famous. All wheels are inspected at 12 months. The cheeses of the highest quality are then selected to further mature to 30 months. This process ensures we get the best possible product, with the distinctive saltiness being the hallmark of Parmigiano.

This cheese has been aged for 30 months, meaning it is rich in flavour, incredibly crumbly and grainy in texture and just done to perfection.

Flavour Profile

Classic and brilliant. Initially sharp, packing fruity and salty flavours then mellowing to a deep buttery finish. This crystalline, grainy textured cheese has a beautifully strong and full aroma.

Drink Pairing

Parmigiano-Reggiano with its mild nutty flavor and fruity taste is a good pairing with Champagne, or Italian sparkling wines like Prosecco!

About the Maker

The Bilzi Family behind the Zabo Brand are cheese maturers. Although they started as cheesemakers, they now concentrate on the careful ageing over years of the cheeses. Every week they visit the farms in the high pastures, selecting the best cheeses for maturing, working only with particular producers who share their artisan approach.

How to Enjoy

Parmigiano Reggiano cheese is best served grated over pastas, or even used in soups and risottos. It is also great eaten on its own as a snack.
