Our selection | Trentingrana has been produced since 1926, when the certain Mr. Marchesi di Rumo, by marrying a girl from Mantua, was able to learn the art of the dairyman in Mirandola. Having acquired the secrets of the trade, he bought the milk from the Cloz dairy and transformed it into the prestigious cheese that is subsequently spread throughout the province. The Trentingrana is part of the great Grana Padano family and, as part of that Protected Designation of Origin, its specificity has been recognized by affixing a special mark on the side of the wheel, just for the mountain characteristics of the production area and the peculiarity of the product |

The producer
Trentingrana - Caseificio di Rumo (TN) - Trentino Alto Adige
Why we chose them
The "Caseificio di Rumo" is an historical reality for Trentino's Cheese Group because here began producing Trentingrana. Trentingrana is a grana
cheese produced since 1926, when Mr. Marchesi marrying a girl from Mantua, he learned the art of cheese-maker in the city of Mirandola. He took
control of the secrets of the trade, he bought the milk of dairy Cloz and turned it into a cheese that is first distributed in the province of Trento. But it
is in the Rumo Dairy Farm, a cooperative founded in 1954, that the production of Trentingrana actually started. Today the Dairy Rumo has 77
members. Most of these companies, that are members of the cooperative, are small farms family run, located at an altitude between 1000 and 1600
meters, which have small farms, from 3 to 25 cows. The 9,000 Trentingrana forms produced every year in Rumo are recognizable not only for the
marking with the TN319 toll that identifies the cheese factory, but also for the organoleptic characteristics of the cheese
