Pecorino aged in fig leaves 1kg

Sheep cheese is wrapped in fig leaves which ensure better preservation and, above all, release their whey that hardens the rind and gives it a pleasant floral sensation.

Subsequently, the pecorino wrapped in this way is left to mature inside used French oak barriques that previously contained wine suitable for Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG. 

Pecorino aged in fig leaves 1kg: How is it produced

Caseificio Facchini Walter, Umbria

The uniqueness of this cheese is not only due to the fact that it is aged wrapped in fig leaves, but, above all, that the aging period takes place entirely inside discarded barriques from Valpolicella. At the end of the maturation, the sensations of vegetal fig gently blend with the winey and vanilla notes of French oak. Very intriguing.

Ingredients Pecorino aged in fig leaves 1kg

Sheep's milk, natural goat's rennet, sea salt, fig leaves

Pecorino aged in fig leaves 1kg: use in the kitchen

The crust is beautifully thick but the pasta is definitely compact and creamy on the palate.

There is a lovely floral and vegetal sensation of fresh aromatic herbs. There are also hints of vanilla and oak highlighted by the wine.

The cheese acquires, in its slow maturation, a very pleasant and unique flavor given by the aromas of the leaves and the oak of the barrels. 

To be paired with medium-bodied red wines, like Tuscan Sangiovese or Alto Adige Lagrein.
