Parmigiano Reggiano DOP 26 months mountain quality 500g

The Parmigiano Reggiano boasts the highest mountain production compared to all other DOP cheeses. The quality "of the mountain" is also a designation that has been approved by the Consortium to give greater value to a specific production that occurs only with milk from mountain farms.

The Rosola Dairy produces in the Modenese Apennines, where the cows breathe good air, graze in the high-altitude pastures, and, thanks to the cool and rainy climate, feed on local herbs and hays, which are more varied and lush compared to those in the plains. The wheels are aged for 26 months and are characterized by a very delicate aroma with hints of floral essences.

Characteristics

Compared to the regular Parmigiano Reggiano produced in the plains, the mountain version has a slightly more intense straw-yellow color and the flavor is more pronounced and aromatic. This is due to the fact that the cows are fed only with hay and herbs and not with feed.
