Pecorino di Forenza is an artisanal dairy product typical of Basilicata and is handcrafted by the family-run company Il Parco delle Bontà. Also known as Pecorone di Forenza, it has a crumbly texture and a full flavor where sweetness is balanced with saltiness, and it releases intense vegetal notes on the nose. This aged pecorino is very flavorful yet fine and complex. Its production process follows the same artisanal procedures that were practiced several centuries ago: in fact, it is one of the oldest cheeses in central Italy. Its aging varies from a minimum of 4 months to a maximum of 12 months. Pecorino di Forenza: Awards received. This unique pecorino has received prestigious recognitions: 1st prize Grolla d'oro "Concorso Nazionale Formaggi d'Autore", Saint Vincent-Valle d'Aosta in 2006; 1st Prize 5th Concorso Ovillus Aureus "Formaggi Pecorini Tipici d'Italia", Fano (PU) in December 2007; 1st classified II Edition Concorso Nazionale "Formaggio Pecorino" category "Stagionati", Mondaino (RN) June 2005.
