Waitrose & Partners Italian Parmigiano Reggiano DOP

Waitrose & Partners Italian Parmigiano Reggiano DOP is a premium hard cheese produced under strict Protected Designation of Origin (DOP) regulations. This authentic Italian cheese is matured for a minimum of 18 months, resulting in its characteristic crumbly texture and nutty flavor profile. As a DOP product, it can only be manufactured in specific provinces of Italy, including Parma, Reggio Emilia, and Modena, using traditional methods and local ingredients.

The brand Waitrose is a well-known British supermarket chain that was founded in Acton, London, in 1904. It is part of the John Lewis Partnership, a unique employee-owned retail business in the United Kingdom. While the product itself is produced by specialized Italian dairies according to historical standards, it is packaged and sold under the Waitrose & Partners private label for the British market. The John Lewis Partnership remains the ultimate owner and operator of the brand, maintaining its headquarters in London, United Kingdom.
