Pecorino Sardo DOP

SOC. COOP. C.A.O. operates across Oristano in Sardinia, where it produces Pecorino Sardo DOP—an ewe's-milk cheese defined by two distinct aging paths. The 'dolce' version matures for 20–60 days, yielding a softer paste and gentler flavor; the 'maturo' requires at least two months and develops complex, assertive character. This dual expression reflects the cooperative's commitment to giving cheesemakers and consumers genuine choice within a single Protected Designation, drawing on sheep herds across 377 municipalities in the region.
