📦 Our shipping system
To guarantee you a fresh, authentic and more sustainable product, we have chosen a monthly and coordinated shipping system. Here’s how it works:
- We collect orders during the first three weeks of the month via our website.
- In the fourth week, the cheese is shipped directly from the dairy in Italy to our headquarters in Sweden.
- Once it arrives, we prepare and deliver orders locally during the first week of the following month.
🌱 Why we do it this way
This system allows us to:
- Reduce COâ‚‚ emissions by making only one international shipment for all orders.
- Offer maximum freshness, as the cheese comes directly from the producer.
- Ensure a more ethical and conscious experience, without waste and with a reduced environmental impact.

How to store vacuum-packed Parmigiano-Reggiano

It is important to make sure that the package is sealed and tight, and not exposed to the air.

How to store Parmigiano Reggiano when freshly cut or taken out of the pack
When you buy a piece of Parmigiano Reggiano freshly cut or when you take it out of the vacuum-pack, it must be stored in the refrigerator at a temperature ranging from 4 to 8°C. Parmigiano Reggiano keeps its organoleptic features unchanged if stored:
- at an optimal humidity level
- far from other food (the fatty part of cheese tends to absorb other smells present in the refrigerator)
It is therefore advisable to keep it in glass or plastic containers.
Another practical solution consists in wrapping Parmigiano Reggiano in food-grade plastic film.
In this way Parmigiano Reggiano can be kept for a long time making sure periodically that its conditions do not change.
It is advisable never to freeze cheese

Duration of storage in refrigerator
Vacuum-packed Parmigiano Reggiano can be stored in the refrigerator for several months.
Every packer is in charge of writing on the pack a date (called DMD, Date of Minimum Durability, or shelf-life that is different from the expiry date that is final), preceded by the wording “best before…” .
After opening the pack or when buying a freshly cut piece of cheese, the instructions and suggestions on how long to keep Parmigiano Reggiano vary depending on its maturation:
Parmigiano Reggiano with a maturation of 12-18 months and a higher moisture content can be kept for about 15 days.
Parmigiano Reggiano with a maturation of 24 months or more can be kept for about 1 month.
If some mould develops on the surface, it is possible to remove it using a knife.
