Pecorino Renero Cheese

The Facts

Country: Tuscany, Italy
Milk Type: pasteurized Sheep
Age: 12 Months

Tasting Notes:

Traditionally aged Pecorino cheese is rubbed with a mixture of black ash and olive oil to create the uniquely black rind. Pecorino Renero Cheese features a very nutty, slightly sharp, rustic flavour of fresh grass and herbs. The texture is hard, but with a very deep richness and creaminess.

Pecorino Renero is savoury and delicious, and digests well as it is made from sheep's milk. Sheep's milk is suitable for lactose intolerant cheese lovers, in most cases.  

Pair with a Pinot Noir.

Our cheese mongers hand cut every cheese to order. We will always try to cut the exact weight ordered, however your piece might be slightly over or under the amount listed. But please know that we cut it freshly and specifically for you.

If you order several cheeses, we will usually make up for shortcomings on weight, if any, on the other cheeses ordered.

All cheeses are wrapped in special cheese paper and sealed to preserve freshness during transit.

Every order includes all the necessary thermal packaging and ice packs required for current weather conditions. Our main focus is getting the freshest product delivered to your door.
