Piacentinu Ennese DOP - 150g
1799
Translation: “Piacentinu” means cheese that pleases (piace)
Description: Hard sheep’s milk cheese made with saffron and black pepper. Its most obvious characteristic is the abundant addition of wild saffron to the curd, giving it a unique yellow colour and flavour.
The sheep used for its production feed mainly on vetch, a leguminous plant, which confers its own distinctive flavour to the milk.
Aged: minimum 2 months
Aroma: Earthy
Flavour: Savoury, typical of sheep’s milk cheese. With a warm and earthy spice imparted by the peppercorns and saffron.
A real showstopper on any cheese board. This cheese can handle the sour kick from our Quince & Apple Mostarda. It will compliment the cheese without overpowering
