Deep savoury rich and warming

Raw cow's milk, traditional animal rennet

Made by the Libbras family and matured by Giorgio Cravero in Bra, north west Italy. One of the best Parmigiano Reggiano matures in Italy.

Giorgio is a huge supporter of innovation and creativity within the cheese world. He also recognises the amazing work done by farmers within the co-op that produces the milk for Parmigiano. Giorgio, recognising the high quality of the milk from one of those farms, experimented by making a cheese solely with that milk (Parmigiano PDO requires cheese to be made with mixed milk).

The result was Centosettanta, made and matured exactly the same as all his parmigiano's but with one farm's milk and bringing to the cheese a unique flavour representing the dedication and love of the region.

Full Details

Some cheeses simply cannot be made in Britian and Ireland and this is one such example. This exceptional cheese is matured by 5th generation maturers. The makers still work to produce small amounts, only 6 a day. There is joy to handling a full parmigiano and to be taught the gentle process of opening one by Giorgio himself is a lesson in care and respect, it also teaches you to appreciate the meaning of ‘slow food’ and what that means in its production and care.
