🏡 Tastings & visitsPecorino Romano DOP

Coop. Unione Pastori brings together shepherds across Sardinia's vast Pecorino Romano DOP zone—783 municipalities spanning the island's pastoral heartland. Based in Nurri, near Cagliari, the cooperative transforms milk into the hard, grating cheese that has anchored Mediterranean tables for centuries. Their wheels mature for five months minimum, eight for the crystalline grating format, using only milk from the October-to-July production window when conditions favour the cheese's distinctive complexity.
