No. Parmesan is an adjective because it is describing the type of cheese it is. But sometimes it can be a proper noun. If it is used in the context; "Can you pass the Parmesan?" then yes it would be because "Parmesan" is not describing anything. Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano in Italian), is a proper noun because the cheese originated in the Parma Region of Italy, it is named after a place.
