Sheep Cheese with Olives

This cheese is made from raw sheep's milk by Vincenzo in Abriola, in the province of Potenza. Located at almost 900 meters altitude, the area offers stunning landscapes where the flock grazes freely from spring until the first cold days of autumn. The cheese is aged for over 4 months, making it ideal to enjoy cut by hand. It has a compact, hard hazelnut-colored rind, while the inside is white, featuring olives embedded in the cheese. The aroma highlights the clear notes of sheep’s milk, with the pleasant addition of olives that enhance its flavor.
