Pecorino Sardo Maturo PDO
Our Pecorino Sardo Maturo PDO is an aged cheese with a white, soft, and elastic paste in younger wheels; firm, sometimes slightly grainy, in more matured ones. As aging progresses, the color turns to straw-yellow and the texture becomes compact, occasionally with small eyes. Minimum aging: 60 days.
The wheel is cylindrical with flat faces and a slightly convex side; diameter approx. 20 cm, height 10–13 cm. Smooth, firm rind of light brown color. Weight: 2.5–3 kg.
The taste is pleasantly tangy. Excellent as a table cheese and, when more matured, ideal for grating.
