Firm and slightly oily, a bit of salt in the finish. The only cheese that approaches Parmigiano Reggiano in sales. Quick Facts Country of Origin: Holland Milk Type/Treatment: Pasteurized Cow Rennet Type: Traditional calf rennet The Flavor Experience The inspiration for Prima Donna was to create a hybrid of Parmigiano Reggiano and Gouda, and they seem to have found a pretty good balance between the two. The Story This is essentially Gouda made with starter cultures that are typically used in northern Italy.  These cultures result in a sweeter cheese than you would typically find in Holland. Usage Tips Pair with most beers or red wines.  We love it with Black Lava Cashews or Cinnful Cocoa Pecans.
