Ciaolatte - Menú

We booked a factory tour and tasting session at Ciaolatte who produce organic Parmesan cheese. The tour was both highly information and enjoyable. The tasting session that followed was delicious and we even bought some great cheese to take home with us. Thoroughly recommended

Filippo and Serena are the nicest folks and were able to give me a tour of their farm and organic parmigiano production. I was so moved when i saw the cheese storage and aging room i nearly cried. The perfume is overwhelming. THey have lots of other marvelous products for sale in their kiosk that are all local and often organic as well.

We visited Ciaolatte for a Parmigiana-Reggiano tasting and tour. It was a fascinating and very informative tour about the very involved and lengthy process of making Parmesan cheese. We also were able to sample 24-month and 36-month aged cheese as well as some of their very delicious traditional pastries. One really come to appreciate the cheese more after the tour.

I went to Ciaolatte with a large tour company expecting a tour about parmesan cheese. It was so much more! While the tour was excellent and very educational, it was the owner who stole the show. Her genuine passion for entertaining her tour guests was incredible. I don't know how old she is, but I was so impressed with her energy. Ho davvero apprezzato il nostro tour e il pasto. Molto bene!

I am rating both the Parmesan Cheese making farm tour and the wonderful lunch following the tour both were terrific. Our family of 4 enjoyed our Sunday morning tour of the cheese making farm and learned a great deal. Following the tour and the tour guide spoke very good English we celebrated with one of the most fun and the most delicious lunch of our trip. We started with cheese of various ages so we could taste the difference 12, 18 and 24 months. We then had homemade ravioli with sage, grilled vegetables, frittata, bread, wine, water, coffee and gelato! It was a great beginning to our vacation and we highly recommend this farm and restaurant.

We had an amazing tour and tasting at Ciaolatte. We arrived at 8am, so got to see all stages of the cheese making. As it is a small cheesemaker, they can give very personal tours, and allow you into all aspects of the production we saw the mixing and moulding (you can also see the milking of the cows, but we couldn't stay for that part). In addition they showed us the butter making, plus we were taken in to their kitchen where we were shown how to make ravioli. The cheese tasting platter has a variety of cheeses, including of course their parmigiano reggiano, it is generous and delicious. What made the tour a highlight of the holiday was the friendly and generous family who enthusiastically...

Serena, daughter of the founder, gave us an incredible tour and explanation of the lengthy process in making Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. And a much better understanding of the tastes of different aging levels. This is a family run business who are truly working the dairy do NOT let any initial lack of understanding of time affect what you can learn from this family who are not only working their core business, but also looking to improve and grow with a new BioSuisse process! Book a tour and watch first hand as they work the copper tanks to hand cloth the cheese, use modern machinery to extract the whey, and combine traditional with modern techniques through the entire processing and aging....

Our tour visited the Ciaolatte farm/Parmigiano-Reggiano manufacturer near Parma on my wife 's birthday. First, a young man gave us a guided tour of the cheese-making facility. For the tour, we wore blue booties over our shoes. The tour ended in a giant room containing cheese wheels stacked to the ceiling. My wife recorded that there were 7,000 wheels in the cooled storage room/warehouse. After this, we went back outside to get samples of three different versions of the cheese, each aged a different length of time. An early dinner followed the cheese tasting. It was prepared by the owner and female employees of Ciaolatte. There were such things as penne pasta with tomato sauce, risotto with c...
