About Italian Pecorino Romano
Pecorino is a term used to define Italian cheeses made from 100% sheep’s milk. Out of the four Pecorino pieces of cheese that have received Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status under European Union law, Pecorino Romano is one of the most ancient types of cheese as well as the most famous outside of Italy. As per legislation, production of Pecorino Romano cheese is allowed only on the islands of Sardinia, Lazio and in the Tuscan Province of Grosseto. As the name suggests, the history of Pecorino Romano cheese dates back to Roman times when it was a part of the staple diet of soldiers at war.
