Product Information
Ragusano is an iconic Sicilian cheese made only with Summer milk. It is made according to traditional methods and pressed to form a large ‘brick’ shape, each cheese weighing about 16 kg. It's made in the same way as caciocavallo and so tastes similar – the flavour is sharp and piccante and there is a rich aroma of herbs, fresh pastures and creamy butter. A great choice if you like strong flavoured cheese with a pronounced bite.

Cantarelli Organic Parmigiano Reggiano Dop
The King of Cheeses – a great Parmigiano Reggiano like this is a kitchen staple. Our 36 month reggiano from Cantarelli is sweet and savoury with a well-balanced bite. It also has an amazing texture – crumbly and flaky, but still incredibly moist – the result of aging in the family’s naturally ventilated cheese caves, used since the 1800’s for maturing Parmigiano Reggiano. Don’t let a single gram go to waste – use the rind to flavour soups and stocks (discard before serving). Each wedge comes packaged in a special foil to protect the cheese from oxidisation.
