A hard, ivory-coloured, organic traditionally made sheep cheese product, the name pecorino derives from pecora, which means 'sheep' in Italian.
Pecorino is the name given to cheeses made entirely of sheep's milk of which many varieties can be found across Italy.
Sardo
Pecorino is one of Italy's oldest cheeses and is made with raw sheep's milk, giving it an authentic rural taste.
This Pecorino Sardo is a matured (3-6 months), excellent quality artisanal cheese made from the milk of the mountain and wild pasture sheep of Sardinia - one of the BLUE ZONE areas of the world.
Mature Pecorino cheese can be used for cooking, grating, or as a table cheese, and can be used to make fresh pesto.
If you follow your Blood Type Diet, Pecorino Cheese is listed as a Beneficial Food for A, B, AB, & O Blood Types
Denominazione di Origine Protetta (DOP)
As a DOP (PDO) 'Protected Denomination of Origin' cheese, it is guaranteed and certified by the Pecorino Sardo Consortium. This is the best guarantee of excellence in a European agri-food product.
Production, processing and preparation, of this cheese, has to take place exclusively in the Pecorino Sardo DOP area of origin.
Coralee - “We use this organic Sardinian sheep cheese, as a supplemental food nutrient, much like purchasing a pot of supplements - to support our Blood Type A dietary requirements.”

How to Store
Keep wrapped in naturally waxed paper in the fridge, ideally inside a slightly opened container so that the cheese still gets some oxygen. + 4’C/+8’C
