Pecorino cheese

pecorinoIn Mugello, pecorino  is a king, a true symbol of Tuscan cheesemaking excellence. 

Many farms keep ancient artisanal traditions alive,often following organic practices. This cheese, with a soft or semi-hard texture, is made exclusively from whole sheep’s milk. It features a distinctive cylindrical shape, a golden rind, and a pale interior with a delicate, lightly spicy flavor. Each wheel tells the story of a deep connection between the product and the Tuscan land. Production follows time-honored methods, carefully preserved through generations. Aging takes place in controlled environments to enhance aromas and flavors. Pecorino  is perfect enjoyed on its own or grated.
