    Seasoned Pecorino: the "Tumazzu" that conquers demanding palates

    Here is the Pecorino Stagionato, the sheep's cheese that has been able to challenge time and keep intact the flavor of the ancient Sicilian traditions. This "Tumazzu", as the Sicilians affectionately call it, is a real treasure hidden among the green hills and pristine pastures of our beloved island.

    Produced with love and passion by the Caruso family, this delicacy has a history of generations of shepherds who have handed down the secret of its preparation. Pecorino Stagionato is aged for 180 days on wooden ladders, just like in the past, to give you an intense and spicy taste that will make you fall in love at the first taste.

    But it's not just the flavor that makes this cheese unique: respect for animal welfare and care for the territory are fundamental values ​​for the Centro Form company. The biodiversity of the production area, far from industrial settlements and intensive farming, allows animals to live in serenity, thus guaranteeing a superior quality milk.

    Seasoned Pecorino is perfect to be enjoyed both on its own, as a table cheese, and as an ingredient to enrich your traditional recipes. And as they say in Sicily, "Tumazzu duru nun pigghia cchiù salamora", or "hard cheese takes no more salt" - once you have tasted this delicious aged Pecorino, you will never want to change!

    Don't miss the opportunity to savor the true taste of Sicily and buy Aged Pecorino directly here. You will thus discover a culinary experience that will take you to the heart of Sicilian traditions and will make you appreciate even more the richness of our territory and a little of the Dolce Vita.
