Parmesan Cheese Factory Tour
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at the entrance of the NH Hotel Parma and head to a factory of the traditional Parmesan cheese, or as we'll have to call it after becoming experts in this product, 'Parmigiano Reggiano'.
After a brief introduction, we'll enter the factory to learn about the history of a cheese made from the milk of local cows, which are fed on the pastures and cereals produced in this area of Italy. This cheese, known and revered all over the world, has a complex production process.
The tour will take us through the production process, exploring the different areas of the factory, such as the brine room and the maturing room. We'll also discover the meaning of "caldere" or how the product is beaten until this delicious dairy product is obtained.
Next, we'll move on to the highlight of the tour, the cheese tasting! We'll have the unique opportunity to taste the different types of parmesan cheese produced in the factory, all accompanied by the local red wine.
We'll conclude the visit at the meeting point in Parma, where we'll arrive 2.5 hours after pickup.
