This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At:

Visit an authentic producer of Parmigiano-Reggiano PDO: you’ll discover how the King of all cheeses has been literally made by hand in the same way since the Benedictine monks invented it 10 centuries ago! From the curdling into the typical copper heaters to the salting and the final ageing in the so-called wheel cathedrals, you will be a privileged witness of almost all the steps of production of this out-and-out food icon. Tasting at the end.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Castello di Torrechiara

Picture-stop at the medieval fortified village of Torrechiara dominated by its breathtaking castle.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Salumificio Conti

Guided visit with final tasting at one of the local family-run ham factories producing the mythical Prosciutto di Parma PDO: you will get to know why the best ham can only be made in the hills of Parma, where the marino wind blows from the Ligurian Sea through the river valley.
