Parmigiano Reggiano DOP is undoubtedly the most consumed of Italian cheeses and is one of the most famous cheeses in the world.
Parmigiano Reggiano DOP is a ‘hard paste’ cheese, characterized by low water content and an aging period that can vary from a minimum of 12 months to well over 30. This specialty is produced in the provinces where are located the Italian cities of Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena, Mantua (on the right of the Po River), and Bologna (on the left of the Reno River).
