Pecorino Toscano

Pecorino Toscano DOP is a time-honored cheese from the rolling hills of Southern Tuscany, where sheep graze freely along the coastal pastures of Follonica. Crafted by a family-owned dairy established in 1966, this cheese reflects generations of expertise combined with the rich agricultural traditions of the region. Each wheel is produced in small batches using milk from a network of approximately 80 local farmers, ensuring quality and a true expression of place.

Aged for 20 days in the cool, airy climate of Monte Amiata, this cheese develops a pleasant, full-bodied flavor with a balanced savory finish. The unique microclimate of the mountain enhances the cheese’s character, while the use of calf rennet and pasteurized sheep’s milk delivers a smooth, approachable profile. Notes of fresh grass and a hint of barnyard on the nose give way to a supple, pliable texture that melts beautifully on the palate. Milder than its southern counterparts, Pecorino Toscano DOP offers an elegant and versatile addition to any cheese board or Italian-inspired meal.
