Family Matters<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Di Bruno Bros<\/a> is a family-owned business that opened back in 1939 at Philadelphia\u2019s Italian Market. It has since grown into five retail locations, a catering business, a sit-down cafe and bar, and a bottle shop.<\/p>\n

Vice President Emilio Mignucci\u2019s grandparents started the company after learning the ins and outs of retail while working for a Greek family in the immigrant neighborhood of South Philadelphia. They eventually saved up their money to buy the 300 square foot shop across the street which would soon become the first Di Bruno Bros.<\/p>\n

Mignucci took over the business with his cousins when his grandparents were ready to retire at the end of 89. \u201cWe knew that if we didn’t take it over, their business would just go away,\u201d says Mignucci. \u201cThey worked too hard for too long to build something that deserves to live on much longer.\u201d<\/p>\n

The mission here has always been about providing a unique experience to the customers and helping to make their day better. \u201cWhen my grandfather gave me the keys to the shop he told me people don\u2019t have to shop here, they choose to shop here,\u201d says Mignucci. \u201cIt’s our responsibility to welcome them into our kitchen and to give them this experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mignucci goes on to add \u201cit\u2019s all about joking and having fun with people,\u201d while also providing an “emotional connection between the consumer and the products.\u201d He has traveled around the world to work with cheesemakers in Spain, France, and Italy to understand their process and learn about their products to sell them to his customers. \u201cI want to help people to understand the makers behind the product that they’re enjoying.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Store<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The original Di Bruno Bros is located in Philadelphia\u2019s Italian Market neighborhood. The company describes the 300-square foot space as a \u201cEuropean-inspired shop\u201d with a cheese counter, charcuterie station, and antipasti bar. Floor-to-ceiling shelves are packed with various goods, items including pasta and jams, and many coming from artisanal producers and small makers from around the world. <\/p>\n

Top-Selling Cheeses<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Parmigiano<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Parmigiano Cravero<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This raw cow milk cheese from Italy \u2014 aged by Parmesan\u00a0affineur Giorgio Cravero \u2014\u00a0 is one of the shop\u2019s most popular cheeses both for a snack and as freshly grated. \u201cBeing a three-year-old cheese, it’s aged in a cooler temperature so it’s not very warm,\u201d says Mignucci. \u201cThe flavor is long-lasting with more tropical fruit notes like pineapple.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"LAmuse<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

L\u2019Amuse Gouda <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This pasteurized cow milk cheese is made in Holland by a husband and wife team and matured at a higher temperature that helps retain moisture and makes this gouda extra creamy. \u201cIt\u2019s a little sweeter and more caramelized,\u201d says Mignucci. \u201cIt\u2019s very light with an essence of smoke and has a great Yin and Yang of sweet and almost a salty finish.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"1605<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

1605 Manchego<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n

This raw sheep milk cheese is made on a Spanish ranch that dates back to 1878. \u201cThis is a true farmstead Manchego,\u201d says Mignucci. \u201cThe cheesemaker is the farmer who grows great soil and grass so the sheep eat well.\u201d As a result, this cheese has welcoming earthy notes and a \u201ctoasted crusty bread finish.\u201d<\/p>\n

Di Bruno Bros also has a new Bottle Shop on 9th Street<\/a> next to its shop, offering a variety of wines, which will soon include three releases of the company\u2019s very own.
