Oro del Maso is a Parmesan-type cheese that is produced in the Alto Adige region of Italy. Its entire production method is maintained out of respect for traditional cheesemaking processes, using only pristine milk from mountain farms. Oro del Maso is hard cheese, suitable for grating, but also preferred as a table cheese. Its 12 month maturation gives Oro del Maso a crumbly texture, full aroma and intense flavor. Try it drizzled with olive oil before the meal or topped with a drop of honey as a dessert cheese.

This grand cheese (a whole wheel weighs over 80 pounds) is made entirely by hand using traditional copper basins. Because all of the milk comes from the pastures of Alto Adige, we can be sure that the cheese is 100% GMO free. The cows that produce its milk feed on fresh, aromatic plants and hay from the surrounding alpine pastures, giving this cheese its characteristic golden-straw color. At only 26g of fat per 100g of cheese, it is even lower in fat than its more famous cousin, Parmigiano Reggiano.

Extremely versatile, Oro del Maso can be enjoyed in many ways. It is particularly suited for grating and is excellent sprinkled over pasta dishes and soups. It can also be enjoyed in slivers as a starter, combined with sparkling white wine. When incorporated into a main dish or at the end of a meal, pair Oro del Maso with matching wines like Pinot Noir or Lagrein.

What’s the best way to store my cheese?
The best way to keep cheese fresh is to store it in the vegetable crisper in your fridge. Before doing so, wrap in parchment or wax paper, then wrap loosely in plastic wrap. You can also buy our exclusive cheese storage bags, specially created to keep your cheese fresher, longer.

Unless used for cooking, we don’t recommend storing cheese in the freezer as this will alter its texture.

What is the best temperature to serve my cheese?
Remove cheese from the fridge an hour before serving, as cheese is best experienced at room temperature to enjoy the full spectrum of flavors.

How long will my cheese stay fresh in the refrigerator?
The length of time cheeses last in the fridge after opening depends largely on the type of cheese. Soft varieties tend to spoil more quickly than hard varieties. Please refer to the table below for a convenient reference:

How We Ship

FreshWave Packaging

Our products are always shipped so they will arrive at your door in optimal condition! We’ve carefully selected packaging options that have minimal impact on the environment without compromising on food safety or quality. 

For perishable orders, we line our shipping boxes with Tempguard - a unique, padded insulator made of 100% pre-consumer recycled paper material. We further control the temperature with recycled kraft paper fill and non-toxic frozen gel packs. In the summer months, we may include dry ice to ensure fresh delivery in very hot weather.

Note: Please join our efforts to be mindful of our environment and extend the life-cycle of our packaging, by recycling your shipping box, Tempguard liner, and kraft fill (all 100% curbside recyclable!). Store the gel packs in your freezer and reuse to keep your next picnic or road trip fare cool.
