Pecorino with olive leaves

A pecorino with a rustic and decisive character, with a compact and crunchy texture and intense aromas that recall vegetal and cellar notes.

Selected by Hammm for the long dairy tradition that this company has carried forward since 1941, with passion and respect for the rhythms of artisanal production.

Characteristics

A pecorino with a rustic, bold flavor, refined with olive leaves that enrich its aromatic profile with notes of cellar and vegetal notes. The cheese is firm and slightly crunchy, with a full, satisfying chewiness.

On the palate it expresses all the intensity of sheep's milk, with a marked but balanced flavour and a dry, persistent finish, which makes it immediately recognisable.

How to enjoy it

Perfect served on its own, on a rustic yet refined platter, or alongside sweet cured meats, chestnut honey, or warm bread.

A cheese that evokes conviviality and authenticity, capable of simply expressing the richness of Umbria. Pair it with an Umbria IGT Rosato Frizzante - Mindy for those who prefer a sparkling rosé, or Umbria Bianco IGT - Diciannove for those seeking a harmonious and vibrant wine, perfect for pairing with aged pecorino cheeses.
