BERTINELLI Parmigiano Reggiano Raw Milk Hard Cheese [Aged Over 15 Months] (180g)

BERTINELLI Parmigiano Reggiano Raw Milk Hard Cheese [Aged Over 15 Months] is a high-quality Parmigiano Reggiano produced by the renowned Italian dairy farm Azienda Agricola Bertinelli.

• Type : This is a hard cheese and belongs to the world-famous Parmigiano Reggiano family.

• Milk Source : Made with raw, unpasteurized cow's milk to preserve a richer, more authentic flavor profile.

• Aging : Aged for over 15 months. Since the minimum aging requirement for Parmigiano Reggiano is 12 months, 15 months already exceeds the standard, offering a more complex flavor.

• Certification : As a Parmigiano Reggiano, it holds DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) certification, ensuring it is produced in specific Italian regions (such as Parma, Reggio Emilia, etc.) using traditional methods.

• Classic Flavor Profile : At this stage, the cheese transitions from a milder, milky taste to more layered notes of nuts and subtle spiciness.

This is a family-run dairy farm located in Noceto, in the province of Parma, Italy.

• Long History : The family's cheesemaking tradition dates back to 1895.

• Production Scale : The farm has approximately 700 cows and produces about 20 wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano per day.

• Quality Philosophy : They manage the entire supply chain from pasture to table, with a strong commitment to sustainability and high-quality production.

In addition to the classic 15-month aged version, Bertinelli offers a variety of aging options (e.g., 24, 36 months, and even older), as well as several specialty lines:

• Millesimato (Vintage Series) : Made from milk selected from a specific exceptional year, offering superior quality.

• Special Edition : Produced in limited quantities only when the milk quality is at its peak, typically aged for over 41 months.

• Halal and Senza (Lactose-Free, Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free) series, catering to different dietary needs and preferences.
