Product details & serving guidance
Pecorino Maremma - Luigi Guffanti, Third of a Pound
A young pecorino from Italy with a soft texture and a mild taste of cream and milk. Nothing here is sharp or aged hard, which makes it one of the easiest sheep's milk cheeses to put in front of a crowd.
Young and soft — barely aged, so the paste stays supple and the flavor stays gentle.
Cream and milk — the taste is dairy forward, almost sweet, with no lanolin bite.
Semi firm — holds a slice on a board but gives easily under the knife.
Pasteurized sheep's milk — consistent and mellow, good for people new to pecorino.
Selected by Guffanti — an Italian sheep's milk cheese carrying the Luigi Guffanti name.
How to enjoy Eat it with honey, jam or fresh fruit, and pour a red or a white alongside. It is also a good grating cheese for a simple pasta when you want something milder.
An easy, generous pecorino, and the one we suggest when someone says they do not like sheep's milk cheese.
