Tuscany's most famous cheese.

Until recently, the name Pecorino Toscano could be given to any cheese made in Tuscany with any amount of sheep's milk. The name is now reserved for 100% sheep's milk cheese made only between September and June. Tuscan pecorini are usually smaller and milder than other sheep's milk cheeses.

Our Pecorino Fresco is aged merely 20 to 30 days. It is mild, sweet and melt-in-your-mouth smooth with just a hint of saltiness.

For a quick and delicious meal, cube some pecorino fresco into a double boiler; melt at a low temperature and toss immediately with cooked pasta and fresh black pepper. Or try drizzled with any of Daniele Devalle's honeys and served as a dessert course. Also terrific paired with fresh fava beans straight out of the pod.
