Traditional production follows an 800-year old tradition of not using additives and feeding the cows on a special diet containing no silage. Parmigiano Reggiano, an Italian cow's milk cheese. The traditional flavour profile is described as nutty and the long aging produces white calcium spots which give the cheese a crunchy bite.
