Gran Istriano is a hard full-fat cheese for slicing produced of full-fat pasteurized cow milk, which by aging becomes an extra hard grating cheese. The average weight of the wheel amounts to as much as 11 kilograms and its ripening takes between 12 and 14 months.

Unlike the classic „Grana” type cheese, Gran Istriano is not produced by pressing, but by self-pressing under its own weight.
