Pienza Pecorino cheese tour
A tour to discover Pecorino cheese from Pienza, with a visit to a local dairy
This tour will take you to discover the pecorino cheese from Pienza, one of the best Tuscan products, right at a dairy farm located in the beautiful hills of Val d'Orcia (UNESCO World Heritage Site) or Valdichiana Senese.
Here, you will observe the techniques of cheese processing, meet the artisans of flavors, understand the differences between various types of Pecorino cheese, and finally, you will learn to taste it.
Flocks of sheep graze the aromatic herbs of Val d’Orcia: the result is a high-quality milk, which, once processed, turns into the famous Pecorino cheese, with its unmistakable flavor.
