Bella Lodi

Bella Lodi is a hard Italian cheese produced in an ancient dairy farm in Parco Adda Sud. The cheese is made from cow’s milk and has a rich aroma, while its texture is flaky, grainy, and crumbly. It is also known as the Black Parmesan and is characterized by its black rind, achieved by hand-coating the cheese wheels with grape seed oil, carbon, and a type of clay known as umber.

After the maturation period of 18 months, it is ready to be consumed as it is or grated over a variety of savory dishes.
