Monnalisa Pecorone

Producer: SALCIS Origin: Tuscany, Italy

Pecorone means “Big Pecorino;” this cheese is a fresh and tasty sheep’s milk made using traditional methods and aged for a year. It is firm and almost resembles a cheddar, but with the unique unctuous and rich texture that only sheep’s milk can deliver. It starts with a fruity sweetness on the palate, with more savory notes and a slightly bitter spiciness at the finish! This cheese is produced only January through June, and due to its long aging, there is very limited availability.
