Story: Pastore is the table cheese made by our fine Pecorino Romano producer. Pastore is relatively young and mild, but don't let the moist paste fool you. If you let it linger on your tongue, the magic of sheep's milk will fill your mouth with a clean, enchanting richness. It is also excellent melting cheese, try it in all kinds of dishes.
