As in all matters, Italy is divided into hundreds of small capitals, territories that tend to develop their own history, to establish different habits and behaviors: Italian cheeses distinguish this Italy from the many gastronomic capitals. Cow, sheep, goat or mixed milk cheeses; cheeses that come from the Alps and are made only when the cows graze on the highest mountain pastures for a few months a year, other cheeses that are born on the driest rocks near the sea from the milk of sheep and goats; cheeses with chilli, pepper, olives, pistachios; very fresh cheeses like buffalo mozzarella or aged for years like Parmigiano Reggiano ... Boni P&O selects about twenty of the best Italian cheeses , those of which it has direct knowledge of the production and quality capacities of individual producers. Even within the most careful PDOs, in fact, there are different processing skills and quality of breeding and raw material. This is why, especially in Italy, being a cheese selector is by no means a job that everyone can do. Parmigiano Reggiano Parmigiano Reggiano has been made the same way for over 8 centuries: skimmed milk in the evening and whole milk in the morning are processed quickly but with very precise times and cadences, with extraordinary attention to temperatures, breaking the curd and wrapping the wheels. Grana Padano Aromas and flavors are constant, the differences vary for the duration of aging: more softness and sweetness between 10 and 19 months, more strength, spiciness and straw fragrances over 20 months.
