FLAVOUR IS A FRONTIERNatoora Hand Cut Aged Pecorino Toscano DOP- This Pecorino Toscano DOP is a remarkable expression of Tuscan cheesemaking tradition, crafted in the heart of the Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO-protected landscape celebrated for its natural beauty and agricultural heritage.- The cheese is made from high-quality sheep’s milk sourced from flocks that graze freely among the hills of Val d’Orcia. Their diet consists mainly of local green or dried forage, naturally enriched with aromatic herbs such as thyme and artemisia, which grow wild in the region’s distinctive clay-rich soil. These local botanicals infuse the milk, and ultimately the cheese, with a unique and unmistakable character.- Each wheel is salted by hand, following traditional methods, and then aged for a minimum of four months. As it ages, the cheese develops complex aromas, earthy notes, and a firm, flavourful texture that reflects its environment and craftsmanship.Take it further- Grate and sprinkle over pasta, risotto, soup, salad or vegetables.- Cut the Pecorino into slices or wedges and enjoy with bread, crackers, nuts and sliced deli meat, or even add it to your charcuterie tray. Natoora's radical approach to seasonal sourcing is shaping the future of food- We don't work with industrial agriculture or large wholesalers- We work closely with growers who are preserving vital flavours through meaningful small farming- We back these growers to build a better future for food, rooted in small scale, sustainable agriculture that gives back to our planet
