Tuscan Pecorino PDO Cheese

Discover the Intense Taste of Pecorino Toscano PDO

The Tuscan Pecorino PDO is an authentic cheese delicacy renowned throughout Italy for its deliciousness and unique flavour. Fresh or mature, this cheese fully represents the authentic flavours of the beautiful Tuscan region.

The roots of Pecorino Toscano goes back to the most ancient history of Tuscany, traces of which can be found as far back as Etruscan times, when for centuries the close connection between man, nature and animals gave life to unique cheese products of the highest quality. It was later identified as Cacio Marzolino, from the month in which it was produced. Since the 19th century, it has been produced according to specific methods.

The secret of its extraordinary flavour is the quality of the milk of Tuscan sheep and the richness of their food environment. The habitat and natural characteristics of the Valdichiana Aretina provide the perfect context for the production of a fine and unmistakable cheese.

Pecorino Toscano is highly versatile and is the perfect accompaniment to a wide range of dishes: from first courses to meat-based main courses, to delicious combinations with fresh jams, always offering a unique contrast of flavours that conquers every taste buds.

Enjoy the authentic taste of Pecorino Toscano during your visit in Tuscany, a gourmet experience that brings you closer to the culinary roots of this fascinating region.
