Itinerary
We’ll go into the cheese factory during milk processing and we'll witness in cooking and making of cheese wheels. We’ll see then the process of salting and maturing up to enter the huge “caveau”, where thousands of cheese wheels are guarded and laid out in long rows in the silent maturation rooms and where the scent of cheese will smell so nice and exciting that we won’t be able to resist till the final tasting of cheese and local typical products. I will give you a lab coat and a cap for access to the production area. I’ll bring you along a complete tour to discover all the steps of Parmigiano Reggiano’s production.
