 Parmigiano Reggiano Stagionato 60 mesi. Caseificio Gennari 

After 60 months the Parmigiano Reggiano is very aged, the taste is more strong and intense and the notes of spices turn out definitely predominant.

A great variety of flavours is recognizable in this cheese. The rich spicy character, with a prominent citrus taste and herbs aroma, is characteristic of its fragrant flavour, tasty but never hot.

The pale yellow colour derives from a long aging process, which leaves to this cheese a nubby texture, with the typical chip fracture.

The milk and the flavours deriving from the aging contribute to create a complex and elegant cheese to be accompanied by the sweet notes of water-melon mustard or the soft acacia honey…all linked to the magic of a good Pantelleria Passito.

The matching by opposition of the strong sensation of this cheese and of the sweetness of the liquorous wine makes this experience exciting.

 Pecorino al Pepe. Monnalisa. Salcis

From the gentle Tuscan hills a delicious cheese with black pepper.
The flavor of the cheese blends with the flavor of the black pepper,  creating an amazing aroma and taste. It’s made with fresh pasteurized sheep’s milk and it’s prepared with traditional methods, with the addition of selected enzymes.
Special to prepare starters, bruschetta, salads, to fill buns or simply enjoyed at the table with a glass of red wine.
Produced by Dairy Salcis, in the province of Siena, from sheep’s milk rigorously selected and processed according to the traditional method thus obtaining a very popular cheese.
