The Pecorino di Forenza is a typical artisanal cheese product from Basilicata and is handcrafted by the family business Il Parco delle Bontà. Also known as Pecorone di Forenza, it has a crumbly texture and a full flavor where sweetness is balanced with saltiness, releasing intense vegetal notes to the nose.
This aged pecorino is very flavorful while also being fine and complex. Its production process follows the same artisanal procedures that were used several centuries ago: in fact, it is one of the oldest cheeses in central Italy. It has a ripening period that varies from a minimum of 4 months to a maximum of 12 months.
This unique pecorino has received prestigious recognitions: 1st prize Grolla d'oro "Concorso Nazionale Formaggi d'Autore", Saint Vincent-Valle d'Aosta in 2006; 1st Prize 5th Concorso Ovillus Aureus "Formaggi Pecorini Tipici d'Italia", Fano (PU) in December 2007; 1st place II Edition of the National Contest "Formaggio Pecorino" in the "Aged" category, Mondaino (RN) June 2005.
