The intense flavors of sheep's milk and black truffle
The Pecorino Moliterno al Tartufo is an absolute masterpiece for the true lover of exclusive cheeses. This sheep's cheese is made in an artisanal way and ripened peacefully in baskets, which gives it its recognizable ridged rind. Only when the cheese has reached its perfect, firm structure and full flavor, does something special happen. Using special syringes, veins of high-quality black truffle paste are injected into the cheese. During the further maturation process, the intense, earthy taste of the truffle beautifully permeates the entire cheese.
The result is a fascinating marbling of dark truffle in the light, cream-colored dairy. The combination of the spicy, slightly salty taste of the Pecorino and the robust, aromatic notes of the truffle is truly irresistible. This cheese is the absolute star on any cheese board and is guaranteed to impress your guests. In addition, it is fantastic to grate over warm dishes such as risotto, fresh pasta or carpaccio. Serve the cheese with a full-bodied red wine, such as a Barolo or Amarone, for an unforgettable taste experience.

Frequently Asked Questions about Pecorino Moliterno al Tartufo
Where exactly does this truffle cheese come from?
The cheese owes its name to the village of Moliterno in the southern Italian region of Basilicata, where the cheese was traditionally matured. Nowadays, a large part of the production is also done on the island of Sardinia, an island famous for its fantastic sheep's milk.
What is the best way to serve this cheese?
Always let the cheese reach room temperature (at least half an hour outside the refrigerator) before serving it, so that the rich truffle aromas come into their own. Serve in small wedges or shave generous curls over your dishes.
Is this cheese very salty?
Pecorino is a hard sheep's cheese and naturally has a savory, slightly salty and piquant edge. However, the rich addition of the black truffle creates a beautiful and unique flavor balance.
