Description
Pecorino Affinato al Mirto e Uvetta is an exceptional artisan sheep milk Tomme cheese that combines traditional Italian cheesemaking with the distinctive flavours of the Mediterranean.
Produced on the Pira family’s farm in Ischia di Castro, central Italy, this premium cheese is handcrafted from grass-fed sheep’s milk before undergoing a careful secondary maturation with myrtle (mirto) and raisins (uvetta). During the ageing process, the fragrant myrtle imparts delicate herbal and balsamic aromas, while the raisins contribute subtle sweetness and rich fruit complexity without overpowering the cheese’s natural character.
The result is a beautifully balanced farmhouse cheese with a firm yet creamy texture, elegant Mediterranean aromas and a long, refined finish. The combination of aromatic herbs and dried fruit creates a sophisticated flavour profile that is both traditional and distinctive.
Produced in limited quantities using traditional farmhouse methods, Pecorino Affinato al Mirto e Uvetta is ideal for gourmet cheese boutiques, luxury hotels, department stores, fine dining restaurants and premium food retailers seeking authentic Italian artisan cheeses with exceptional regional identity.
It pairs beautifully with Cannonau, Chianti Classico, Barolo, dessert wines, aged whisky, roasted almonds, artisan crackers and wildflower honey.
Aged sheep cheese finished with myrtle and raisins.
