Auricchio Pecorino Romano 250g

There's a reason Pecorino Romano has been treasured in Italian kitchens for over two thousand years, and one taste of this authentic aged sheep's milk cheese from Auricchio reveals exactly why. Sharp, salty and utterly compelling, this is the cheese that transforms simple ingredients into something magnificent. Made exclusively from sheep's milk rather than cow's, it brings a distinctive mineral richness and that characteristic tang that's both bold and beautifully complex on the palate.

We source this genuine Pecorino Romano because sheep's milk naturally contains higher levels of calcium, protein and beneficial fatty acids compared to cow's milk, plus it's often better tolerated by those sensitive to bovine dairy. Aged to develop its crystalline texture and intense flavour, this 250g wedge is perfect for grating over pasta, shaving onto salads, or enjoying with ripe pears and honey. Auricchio honours traditional cheesemaking methods that have remained virtually unchanged through centuries, and we love bringing you this piece of Italian heritage that does so much more than simply season your food. Whether you're following traditional Roman recipes or creating your own kitchen magic, this is the real thing.
