Immerse yourself in a culinary journey in Emilia-Romagna with a visit to three Protected Designation of Origin product factories: a traditional Parmigiano Reggiano dairy, a balsamic vinegar acetaia, and a prosciutto factory. Begin at a Parmigiano Reggiano DOP factory, where you’ll watch expert cheesemakers transform milk into the legendary cheese. Get hands-on by touching the creamy curd, and taste the cheese at different stages of production. Marvel at the impressive maturation warehouse, where thousands of wheels rest for at least 12 months before being “baptized” as Parmigiano Reggiano. After your factory tour, enjoy a “breakfast of champions” featuring local salame, mortadella, homemade bread, cake, and two different-aged Parmigiano Reggiano, paired with Lambrusco wine and coffee. Sample the region’s best, surrounded by the flavors that define Emilia-Romagna. Next, step into the magical world of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP. In the tranquil aging room, surrounded by rows of wooden barrels, learn the secrets behind this complex and unique product. Taste a variety of vinegars and discover the patience and tradition that go into every drop. Your journey continues at the Prosciutto Factory Montevecchio, where you’ll uncover the strict regulations and careful process behind Prosciutto di Modena DOP. See how just two ingredients, pork and salt, are transformed through time and expertise into a delicacy with unmistakable flavor. Conclude your day with a family-style multi-course lunch at a private restaurant. Savor seasonal starters, a prosciutto tasting, homemade traditional pastas, and dessert, all accompanied by local wines. Enjoy the lively, welcoming atmosphere of a true gastronomic experience, paired with incomparable fun in a truly unique environment. Then return to the originally selected pickup point, full of new flavors and memories.
