Good To Know

Live production: being artisanal and not industrial products, the working cycle is not repeated every day at the same time, so it is not guaranteed to see craftsmen at work at each site (for example: Wine and Vinegar making, Prosciutto di Parma, Culatello).
For the self-drive option, please meet your guide in Parma (address provided in your booking confirmation). The guide may come in your car, or will be driving her/his own car and you would follow in your car.
Please pay attention to the program that the tour provider will send you before the departure date through the Viator message center
Please note that the locations mentioned in the program might change for availability reasons with similar ones.
Please advise any specific dietary requirements at time of booking
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller

What You’ll Experience

Caseificio Consorzio Produttori Latte soc agr coop - CPL

Meet our guide in Parma and head on to visit an authentic producer of Parmigiano-Reggiano PDO: you’ll discover how the King of all cheeses has been literally made by hand in the same way since the Benedictine monks invented it 10 centuries ago! From the curdling into the typical copper heaters to the salting and the final ageing in the so-called wheel cathedrals, you will be a privileged witness of almost all the steps of production of this out-and-out food icon. Tasting at the end.

Mulino di Casa Sforza
