Italian Brown Cow

Bruna Alpina Cow

The perfect balance between technique, tradition and flavour.

A well-established breed that brings technical precision and balance to Parmigiano Reggiano.

The Italian Brown, heir to the ancient Bruna Alpina, has become one of the most valued dairy breeds in the world of Parmigiano Reggiano. Its presence in Italy has remained strong over time thanks to its rustic character, its adaptability and, above all, the technological quality of its milk.

More than standing out for volume, the Bruna stands out for composition. Its milk has a profile especially suited to cheesemaking, with a casein content highly appreciated in the production of long-aged cheeses, where coagulation efficiency and curd firmness are decisive.

This technical base translates into a more precise transformation and into a raw material capable of producing Parmigianos that are balanced, stable and elegant, with a clean structure and a particularly interesting evolution during ageing.

Parmigiano Reggiano from Bruna cow’s milk
Bruna cow wheels include a specific marking on the upper part of the rind, visible on the crust, which makes it possible to distinguish this production from other Parmigiano Reggiano references.
