| I really cannot recommend this cheese highly enough. The flavor and consistency is almost perfect. This is a very strong tasting, natural cheese. Cut very thin to savor the flavor as a snack cheese, but of course this stuff has no equal as a grating cheese. To be honest, I am usually not a big fan of many cheeses in this category, but of the ones I do like, this heads the list. A unique eating experience! Cannot see how you can go wrong here. |

From Parma,Italy comes two famous food products.
Parmigiano Reggiano and prosciutto (which translates into something like dried meat.If you're ever in Bologna,I'd recommend a stop at Tamburini, which has stood in its place for as long as I can remember.
This cheese is worth every cent.
When you buy it, don't have it ground at the store, buy the block and grate it at home or it will lose it's strength of flavor.
I recommend this with a 100% guarantee of falling in love with the product, so buy it for St. Valentine's Day if you're single.

This is the parmigiano I remember from the neighborhood Italian market when I was a girl.
The taste is lovely and piquant - a little goes a long way in the flavor department. There are the wonderful little crystals in the cheese. And it is aged so that it crumbles really nicely when cut.
It is absolutely delicious eating out-of-hand, which is the way I prefer it. Just a little piece is so satisfying. (I am 100% Italian, first generation American, and my parents were real 'foodies', so I like to think I know my cheeses!)
The Parmigiano was also packaged really well. It came extremely cold in a little styrofoam container, with a cold pack and additional padding, inside a cardboard box.
(.....)
I would order this cheese again and I look forward to ordering with (....) again, too. Check out their website for fantastical things! |

| This was a gift for a person who is of Italian descent and who loves to cook. She said the cheese was of excellent quality. The vendor kept me informed about my order via email and the gift arrived on time and in good condition. |

This is a spectacular cheese but I would not buy from this seller again. The reason? I ordered 3 pounds for christmas but was sent 2 1/2 pounds of small discards, including pieces of rind, all shrink wrapped in a ton of plastic. They refuse to respond to emails and are difficult to contact or deal with if you have a problem. As a refund they refused to reimburse me the $31.78 for shipping.
As the saying goes....Buyer Beware |

| This is so delicioso that I can eat the entire pound by myself. Just one hint though, if you love to cook (let's say...Lasanga), sprinkle a little Parmigiano Reggiano over the top...try it. If you're on a diet, this is one heck of a way to break it. |

Parmigiano Reggiano, mostly grated for use by most of us here in the U.S., is considered very wrong in Italy to use as a "grating" cheese. It's used as shavings for toppings to dishes or just for eating chunks. NEVER grated. The best by far is Parmigiano Reggiano Resirva Stravecchio. YUM-O!
But I'm here in the U.S., so I do it both ways. Great to eat (wonderful, nutty flavor to me). I use it on pastas, salads, bruschettas. Top off some Artisan toasted bread with pesto and grate this cheese over it, or put a nice shaving on it and set it under the broiler...OMG! It'll make you sass your mama! |

| Excellent product and delivered fresh. Made of raw milk to keep original flavor. Highly recommended if you like strong taste of raw milk cheeses. |

| I just opened my Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese and it's outstanding! I intended to use it in my mixture for meatballs, but decided it's way too delicious. Definitely to be enjoyed by freshly grating atop any pasta dish, but I enjoy eating it as is with some fresh fruit! |

| The only real Parmigiano (Reggiano) is one of the great cheeses of the world. The best Reggiano (there are different grades of Reggiano, too) is much more than a grating cheese--it is a cheese that can be eaten by itself, before a meal or after. The best grades of Reggiano are best shaven paper-thin (use a good cheese plane) and will have a slight pineapple taste when savored slowly. This cheese is a real treat! |
