TASTING NOTES
Cave-aged Pecorino cheese is characterised by a strong and very distinctive taste. In fact, the special ripening technique gives it rich, intense flavours and aromas. It is produced with 100% sheep's milk. It is a hard cheese, characterised by a straw-yellow colour with slight eye formation on the inside, while the exterior part is composed of a bark-coloured non-edible rind.
THE BEST WAYS TO TASTE IT
To really enhance the flavour of Cave-aged Pecorino, we recommend trying it with red onion jam, acacia honey and broad beans. If you are planning an aperitif, you can cut it into thin slices or cubes and combine it with soft focaccia bread and some mixed cold cuts, such as PicNic Salami, Cooked Ham, Roast Turkey and Pork Bresaola.
Otherwise, if you want to use it to prepare main courses, it is delicious to enrich gnocchi or pureed soup. It is also ideal as a filling for a tasty sandwich with Lard, broad beans and honey, for example.
