Italian Pecorino Toscano Stagionato DOP - Whole Cheese Wheel (4 pound) Description Features: AGED PERFECTION: The Italian Pecorino Toscano Stagionato DOP is a best-selling cheese that undergoes additional aging for three to four months by the skilled cheese masters at Il Forteto in Tuscany. This extended aging process enhances the flavor and texture of the cheese, making it even more delicious. LOCALLY COLLECTED SHEEP'S MILK: This Pecorino Toscano Stagionato DOP is crafted from sheep's milk collected from local sources between September and June. The use of high-quality sheep's milk contributes to the unique characteristics of the cheese. FLAVOR AND TEXTURE TRANSFORMATION: As the cheese ages, it undergoes a visual and sensory transformation. The original milky white color develops into a beautiful hay-colored, ivory hue. The sweet and silken texture gradually gives way to a sharp and zesty flavor with a brittle texture, offering a delightful taste experience. MADE FROM PASTEURIZED SHEEP'S MILK: Crafted from pasteurized sheep's milk, this Pecorino Toscano Stagionato DOP ensures quality and safety standards while still offering the rich and authentic flavors of traditional Italian pecorino cheese.
