Balsamic And Parmigiano Gift Set

This wonderful combination of top quality balsamic vinegar from Modena and aged Parmigiano Reggiano cheese makes a lovely gift for any discerning foodie. Delicious individually, these two famous Italian specialities, when combined are a gourmet treat! Drizzle the balsamic over a slice of Parmesan and savour!  Il Classico 8 Year Old Balsamic Vinegar from Modena (250ml) A rich bouquet and a perfect balance between sweet and sour make this a very versatile balsamic vinegar, made from the best musts and aged for eight years in the barrels of Giusti’s famous cask deposit. With its wonderful perfume, it is a high class choice for salads, omelettes, meat and fish fillets and veal escalopes. Mentioned in the book ‘101 things to buy before you die’ alongside Champagne Krug and Iranian and Belluga Caviar, this vinegar is a twice Gold Medal winner. Parmigiano Reggiano DOP Aged 36 Months (500g) This mountain Parmesan cheese is artisanally produced at 1000m in the Appenines near Parma. Milk for the Parmesan is collected from open pasture grazing cows on local farms and every kilo of parmesan is produced with 14 litres of raw milk. Raw milk is simply unpasteurised and Parmigiano Reggiano cannot actually be called Parmigiano Reggiano if it is not made from it. The raw milk contributes to the complex, full flavour and aroma that makes Parmesan the King of Cheese! All DOP Parmesan must be aged for at least 12 months. Ours is matured for 36 months making it a deliciously nutty, crunchy cheese. Vorrei wrap all breakable items carefully and individually inside the box and then tie with a beautiful ribbon.
