A sharp aged sheep's milk cheese studded with whole black peppercorns is an exciting alternative to regular Pecorino Romano. It has a spiciness and bite that is pleasing as a table cheese, as well as terrific for grating or shaving over pasta and soup. Made entirely from sheep's milk and aged nine months for well-aged flavor and very firm texture,  Pepato bears the Locatelli trademark, a famous Italian dairy company renowned for cheeses. A perishable product, Pecorino Pepato may require 2nd day shipping, depending on distance.
