Valserena Parmigiano Reggiano — 30 Months Matured | The King of Cheeses
Widely regarded as the finest Parmigiano Reggiano available in the UK, Valserena is made from raw cow's milk by a single estate in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy. Matured for a minimum of 30 months — well beyond the standard 12–18 months — this Parmesan develops an extraordinary depth of flavour: intensely nutty, richly savoury and crystalline in texture, with the characteristic umami punch that only genuine long-matured Parmigiano Reggiano can deliver.
Exceptional grated over pasta, risotto or used in cooking — but honestly, best enjoyed on its own with a drizzle of aged balsamic and a glass of good Italian red.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Valserena Parmigiano Reggiano special?
Two things: provenance and maturation. Valserena is a single-estate producer in Emilia-Romagna, making their Parmigiano from raw cow's milk using traditional methods. At 30 months of ageing — almost double the standard — the cheese develops an intense nutty depth, a satisfying crystalline texture from the naturally occurring amino acid crystals, and a long, complex finish that supermarket Parmesan simply cannot replicate.
What's the difference between 12-month and 30-month Parmigiano?
At 12–18 months, Parmigiano Reggiano is mild, milky and relatively soft — it's the standard supermarket version. At 30 months, the cheese has lost significantly more moisture, concentrating its flavour into something far more intense, nutty and complex. The texture becomes granular and crystalline. The umami punch is incomparable. Once you've tried 30-month matured, it's very hard to go back.
How should I use it?
Grated over pasta, risotto or soup — even a small amount transforms a dish. Shaved onto a board alongside prosciutto, bresaola or fig jam. Eaten on its own with a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar and a glass of Barolo or Amarone. Also outstanding melted into sauces where you want maximum depth without bulk.
How should I store it?
Wrap tightly in wax paper or aluminium foil and keep in the fridge — ideally in the vegetable drawer where humidity is higher. It will keep well for several weeks. For best flavour, bring to room temperature for 20–30 minutes before eating on a board.
