The term ‘grana’ was used originally to indicate a cheese characterised by the grainy texture of the cheese produced in Valle Padana from the 11th Century. The fire-branded Grana Padano trademark comes from the Consortium for cheeses that have aged for at least 9 months after they were verified as meeting the requirements and provisions of production specifications, and qualified as an authentic Grana Padano.

Grana means ‘grainy’ in Italian which is reflected in the fine granular texture with an intensely sweet flavor. As Grana Padano ages, the flavors become pronounced, savoury and complex and the texture becomes more crumbly.
