Mountain Parmigiano Reggiano - 28-30 months
Caseificio Borgotaro, located between La Spezia and Parma, in Val di Taro, was founded in 1967. The products are made exclusively with milk sourced from stables located in the surrounding area. Moreover, great attention is paid to the dairy cows’ diet: only cows fed local fodder, produced at altitudes over 1000 meters and characterized by the richness and variety of the forage species.
The Parmigiano Reggiano wheels are aged for two consecutive summers (for a total of 28 to 30 months), relying on a natural ventilation process. The milk, which arrives at the dairy within two hours of milking, comes from Bruna Alpina cows, known for the production of high-quality milk with a high casein content.

Let’s talk about cheese aged over 24 months: Parmigiano Reggiano acquires new aromas, with notes of melted butter and fresh fruit, with slight notes of citrus fruits next to hints of dried fruit. The cheese evolves into a sweet and savory balance and characterized by a perfectly soluble, crumbly and grainy texture.
