Aged for 20 to 30 days, Pecorino Sardo Cheese is a cheese produced with sheep’s milk from Sardinia. The cheese has special and unique features, which allow it to gain DOP, the most important European recognition for foods. Pecorino Sardo Cheese is dated back to the ancient people of Sardinia and it is one of the most healthy cheese on the market.

The flavour is delicate and mild, reflecting the indigenous grasses and herbs that the sheep graze on. Highlights of thyme and lemon complement the sweet flavour and smooth creamy texture of each semi-soft wheel. Pecorino Sardo Cheese rind is smooth and thin and has a white to straw yellow colour.

The consistency of this cheese is compact with a few eyes. It is best enjoyed alone and also suitable for baked pasta dishes, quiches, frittatas, salads, vegetable soups and antipasto. It also pairs well with dried fruits, sweet grapes and pears. A light white wine or a fruity Italian red wine pairs wonderfully with Pecorino Sardo Cheese.

Attention, the supplier may vary. the product will be identical and therefore produced according to the criteria of the territory in respect of the consortium and the protection mark.

Pecorino Sardo PDO Maturo "Campeda" from Lacesa, the dairy cooperative of Bortigali in central Sardinia (Nuoro), made from whole sheep's milk from free-grazing Sardinian flocks. A semi-cooked, compact, semi-hard cheese with a few small eyes, straw-yellow in color, aged 120 days.

Ingredients: Sheep's milk, salt, rennet, cheese cultures.

Contains: milk.

Pecorino Sardo

Soft, not sharp or goaty, elegant and slow to dissolve, not dry, not moist but firm-ish and subtle - the flavour back-builds for over a minute then appears as a nutty, dry non sugared cheesecake flavour with live emzime packed creamy wine begging mouth feel for a Cannonau from Sardinia which is a match made in heaven!
