Named after the creator of the iconic Australian brand, Vegemite, Fred Walker Shaved Parmesan is produced by Saputo at their Cobram factory on the VIC-NSW border.
The surrounding region is often referred to as ‘peaches and cream country’; a reference to the fruit and dairy producers located there, including Saputo’s Murray-Goulburn co-operative which supplies the milk used for cheese production.
Drawing inspiration from the great Italian cheese, Parmigiano Reggiano, each wheel is made with a unique blend of cultures that create a sweet aroma and caramelised milk flavour. After 12 months of maturation, the hard, dense cheese is shaved and packed in gas-flushed bags that help to preserve the flavour and moisture in the cheese.
