  • Exhibitor: VALSANA
  • Brand name: Biopek
  • Sector: PASTA DURA

Pecorino Canestrato made from pasteurised sicilian sheep's milk from small farms and aged for at least 8 months: the wheel, that is called "canestrata", ochre in colour, has an important size. The paste is compact, dry and straw-yellow in colour.

With a strong Sicilian character: a barely hinted sapidity enhances aromatic notes of oregano, dried tomato and Mediterranean scrub
