IL Villaggio, known for its authentic Italian flavors, has introduced three new Pecorino cheeses: the classic Pecorino Toscano DOP and two truffle-infused varieties, Pecorino al Tartufo and Aged Pecorino al Tartufo Bianchetto. These additions join IL Villaggio’s popular Pecorino Romano and Pecorino Calabrese, showcasing the diverse flavors of Pecorino cheeses, which range from mild and creamy to bold and umami-rich.
“IL Villaggio offers consumers a taste of Italy every time they use our products. These sheep’s milk cheeses bring that authentic flavor to every dish,” said Katie Baldwin, Corporate Social Responsibility and Brand Manager, in a recent press release. “Plus, you can’t beat that umami flavor that Italian truffles bring to the table.”
Each cheese is produced by a family-owned dairy in Southern Tuscany using milk from sheep that graze freely along the coastal pastures of Follonica. All three cheeses are aged on Mount Amiata, a volcanic mountain where the breeze of the Tyrrhenian Sea meets the cool air of the Apennine Mountains—creating a unique microclimate that enhances flavor and texture.

With the addition of these cheeses, IL Villaggio continues to offer retailers and foodservice partners high-quality, artisanal products that bring the spirit of Italy to everyday meals. The new line will begin shipping in mid-May 2025.
