Taste What Europe Does Best | Grana Padano PDO cheese and Prosciutto di Parma PDO have a lot in common. Each has been made for centuries in a particular location in Europe, each still uses time-honored traditional production methods, and each belongs to an elite group of European products certified under the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) system, guaranteeing quality and authenticity. | |

Grana Padano PDO Cheese | Grana Padano is made in Northern Italy, from raw, semi-skimmed cow’s milk. After 9 months of aging, each wheel is carefully tested for appearance, aroma and texture. Only the best wheels receive the fire-branded logo officially grading them GRANA PADANO PDO cheese. | |

Prosciutto di Parma PDO | Prosciutto di Parma PDO is a 100% natural product and has no additives. Its all-natural aging process creates a variation in flavor profiles and textures, from mild and nutty to mature and full-flavored making it a great addition to pizza, salads and more. | |
