Giunco d'Oro
A precious name for a cheese that guards an ancient tradition. Giunco d'Oro is an aged canestrato pecorino, born of Sardinian cheesemaking know-how and distinguished by the use of a particular mixed lamb and kid rennet.
Ageing concentrates its taste and strengthens its character, while the basket-moulding recalls ancient gestures, those of a tradition that still today can turn a few simple ingredients into something extraordinary.
It is a cheese to savour calmly, perhaps shaved into flakes and served with rustic bread, honey or preserves. On a sharing board it becomes the ideal star, especially alongside a good red wine.
An important pecorino, with a full and long-lasting taste, made for those who look in cheese for the flavour of the land, of time and of tradition.
Giunco d'Oro: a precious expression of the most authentic Sardinia.
