Stop At: Province of Modena, Province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna
We’ll start this incredible journey with an early pick up (around 7:00am) in Bologna with our private minivan or minibus to head to the countryside between Modena and Bologna. Why so early- Parmigiano Reggiano doesn’t wait! It’s made only in the early morning and we want you to get in action ASAP!
We will see the cheesemakers taking care of all the production steps right before your eyes. You can touch the creamy curd, taste the cooked cheese and get absolutely stunned by the warehouse, where thousands of wheels all around you wait at least 12 months to be “baptized” as Parmigiano Reggiano. Time to taste it, what’d you expect- Young or aged, creamy or crunchy, delicate or intense: you can decide which of the 2 different-age samples is your favorite… or just love them both!
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Monteveglio, Monteveglio, Valsamoggia, Province of Bologna, Emilia-Romagna
Third and last excellence to meet: meat (pun intended)! Prosciutto Factory Montevecchio’s products will conquer your palate with its fragrant smell, buttery texture and delicate savoriness. We’ll learn about the strict regulations, the long curing process, and the tremendous care necessary to transform only 2 ingredients into a typical product with unique characteristics.
We’ll taste its wholesomeness and genuineness with other local charcuteries and a glass of Lambrusco, before a proper lunch is served!
Duration: 3 hours
Stop At: Castelvetro di Modena, Castelvetro di Modena, Province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna
Another gem of Emilia Romagna is waiting to be discovered: Traditional Balsamic vinegar of Modena. After our “breakfast of champions” with local salame, mortadella, homemade bread, cake, Lambrusco wine and coffee, we’ll lead you into a magical world of smells, flavors, patience, and family tradition you’ve never experienced before! In the aging room, surrounded by many peaceful barrels, the secrets of this complex, unique and fascinating product will be unveiled.
