With a name that translates to “antique gold,” earthy and robust Pecorino Oro Antico lives up to its description. Bathed in luxurious olive oil before aging for at least six months in a stone cellar, this pasteurized sheep’s milk cheese sets the gold standard for pecorinos. As it matures, the rubbed rind develops a zesty, peppery flavor that permeates its crumbly, crunchy paste—building on the cheese’s nutty, grassy notes.
