Located in:Cheese, Italy
We are now offering a special three pound cut of this essential Italian cheese!

Stravecchio Oro del Tempo is a superior, 22-month aged Grana Padano produced by Agriform near Venice. This masterpiece compares beautifully with its better-known cousin Parmigiano Reggiano. The flavor of Stravecchio is intense and complex, with fruity overtones that evoke pineapple or strawberry, depending on the season. Like all precious things, every Stravecchio cheese is one of a kind, and each wheel is branded with a unique serial number. Agriform tests the quality of each wheel of Stravecchio every week until the twentieth month of aging. The end result of this rigorous testing process is that only the cheeses that deserve to become prime Grana Padano Stravecchio are stamped with the certificate of origin and guarantee.

  • Made from unpasteurized cow's milk.
  • Wheel is 80 lb. form of cheese.
  • We cut and wrap this item into 3 lb. wedges.
  • Please contact us if you would like to purchase the whole form.

I bought this mainly after tasting it at a restaurant which is where I fell in love with the taste. It's good as a nibbler with wine and bread, but also good on salads. I think everyone needs to try this cheese!

I will now buy this cheese instead of Parmigiano Reggiano. Yes it is that good and I like it better. I use it in salads and in bread to make croutons for salads. I also like it as a topper for casseroles. For my taste it is simply the best.
