Pecorino Calabrese - Whole Wheel (3 lb)

This pure sheep's milk cheese, crafted in four-pound wheels, originates from Calabria, a region in southern Italy. Calabrese boasts the renowned pecorino flavor, showcasing a delightful balance of sweetness and saltiness. Akin to most ewe's milk varieties, its surface exhibits a slightly oily texture due to the natural oils present in the milk. Formed within woven molds, the rind develops a distinctive ribbed pattern, creating an appealing visual presentation. Excellent as a snacking cheese, this delicacy is shipped expedited in an insulated package to ensure its freshness upon arrival.

Imported directly from Italy, this Calabrese cheese is a versatile culinary delight. It can be grated or sliced, making it a perfect addition to various dishes. The salty and sweet profile of this pecorino cheese pairs exceptionally well with bold red wines, such as Brunetto, enhancing the overall dining experience.

Crafted from pure sheep's milk, this artisanal cheese embodies the rich traditions and flavors of the Calabrian region. Its unique characteristics and high-quality ingredients make it a standout choice for cheese enthusiasts and culinary connoisseurs alike.
