Pecorino aged with chestnut leaves, in a small format. A whole piece for a cheeseboard or for sale by the unit.
This small format follows the same recipe as the large wheel. It is aged for about 140 days in Tuscany, between chestnut burrs and leaves, in a wooden crate at room temperature, and is not moved until it is ready. Its shape often remains irregular.
The interior is crumbly and savoury, with an intense forest-floor aroma. The flavour is clean, then mild and lingering. Serve it in autumn with chestnut honey or roast chestnuts.
