About The Product
Zarpellon Parmigiano Reggiano is a DOP-certified Italian hard cheese matured for over 22 months, produced from 100% Italian cow's milk using nothing more than milk, salt, and rennet. No preservatives, no rind treatment — just three ingredients and time. Often called the King of Cheeses, Parmigiano Reggiano has been produced using the same fundamental method for over a thousand years, and the DOP designation guarantees that every wheel meets the strict specifications that govern its origin and production. The 22-month maturation develops the characteristic compact, finely grainy paste with barely visible holes, a clean golden rind, and a flavour that is savoury, fragrant, and deeply complex without being sharp or aggressive.
A benchmark hard cheese for professional kitchen and cheese counter use, Parmigiano Reggiano performs across a wider range of applications than almost any other Italian cheese. The extended maturation produces a concentrated, crystalline texture that grates cleanly, shaves beautifully, and holds its own on a board alongside cured meats and fruit. It suits restaurants, premium delis, and wholesale accounts across Cape Town and the Western Cape looking for an authentic DOP hard cheese with the provenance and quality to justify its place at the centre of any serious Italian food offering.
