Italian Pecorino

The Salty Heart of Italian Cuisine

Savor the authentic flavor of Italy with our Pecorino Romano, an iconic hard sheep's cheese from Sardinia. Made from the milk of free-grazing Sardo sheep, which feed on wild herbs and grasses, this cheese develops its characteristically strong, salty flavor with a subtle spicy undertone.

What makes our Pecorino Romano so special?
✔ Traditional preparation - Washed with seawater for that unique salty taste
✔ Pure sheep's milk - Rich and full of flavour thanks to the sheep's natural diet
✔ Kitchen all-rounder - Just as good for grating over pasta as for slicing for a cheese board
✔ Authentic Sardinian - Despite the name 'Romano', this variant comes from Sardinia

Taste experience:
An explosion of salty umami notes followed by a spicy finish – intense yet refined.

Perfect for:
• Traditional pastas such as Cacio e Pepe
• Antipasti platters with honey and nuts
• Grated over risottos and soups
• Pure enjoyment with a glass of strong red wine

A piece of Italian culture - Our Pecorino Romano is more than just cheese, it's a culinary journey to the Sardinian hills.
