Parmigiano Reggiano Red Cows

The Red Cow Parmigiano Reggiano is an authentic gastronomic excellence, made possible thanks to the precious milk of the rare Reggiana Red Cows. This cattle breed, once at risk of extinction due to its lower productivity, was saved thanks to the Consortium of Red Cows. These cows produce about a third less milk compared to the more common Friesian cows. About 16 liters (4.2 gallons) of milk are needed to produce one kilo (2.2 lbs) of Parmigiano, which contributes to its higher cost compared to traditional Parmigiano.

However, the superior quality of the Red Cow milk, rich in casein and fats, more than compensates for this lower productivity. The resulting cheese has an extraordinary aging capacity, superior digestibility, and a complex flavor that evolves over time. Red Cow Parmigiano Reggiano stands out for its sweet and delicate taste, with an intense yet balanced aroma. Even during longer aging periods, it retains an elastic texture and a straw-yellow color, the result of a natural diet based on grass, hay, and grains. Its aromatic notes include dried fruit and butter, with a persistent and pleasant aftertaste. It is perfect to enjoy on its own, accompanied by honey, mustard, a glass of good wine, or a few drops of Balsamic Vinegar.
