| Pecorino Di Filiano - Dop |
 "Pecorino di Filiano" is an Italian sheep cheese hailing from the Basilicata region, in the SOuth of the country. This hard cheese is made by draining the curds in typical straw baskets, visible in the woven pattern on the finished wheels of cheese. Then, the Pecorino is aged for 8 to 10 months in natural caves, during which it gains a sweet and robust flavor, with nutty notes and a sharp finish. Our Pecorino di Filiano is made at Pietra del Sale, where the proprietor has dedicated his life to the production and sale of traditional authentic foods. Thanks to his passion for the bounties of Italian gastronomy he produces delicious Pecorinos and goat cheeses, in which tradition and innovation are perfectly balanced. One of his masterpiece is Pecorino Canestrato di Filiano, a DOP cheese made with the sheep's milk of the local Razza Gentile heritage breed.
