L'Arte del Casaro Grana Padano DOP

L'Arte del Casaro is a private label brand primarily associated with the Italian supermarket chain Penny Market (a subsidiary of the REWE Group). This specific product is Grana Padano DOP, a hard, slow-ripened, semi-fat cheese from northern Italy.

By law, Grana Padano must be manufactured within specific regions of the Po River Valley in Italy (such as Lombardy, Piedmont, and parts of Veneto) following strict traditional methods monitored by the Grana Padano Consortium. This ensures that the production remains rooted in its historical origin of Northern Italy. While the brand is a retailer-owned private label, the ultimate ownership of the Pennys/L'Arte del Casaro brand lies with the German multinational REWE Group, headquartered in Cologne.
