Spicy Italian Sheep’s Milk Cheese with Chili
Contents: Semi-hard sheep’s milk cheese infused with crushed red chili flakes

Product Description

Moliterno Dolce Piccante is a bold and flavorful cheese from Sardinia, made from 100% sheep’s milk and infused with crushed Calabrian chili peppers. Aged to perfection, it balances the creamy richness of traditional Pecorino-style cheese with the fiery kick of red pepper flakes, creating a unique contrast of sweetness (“dolce”) and spice (“piccante”):

• Made from pasteurized sheep’s milk

• Studded with crushed red chili flakes throughout the paste

• Aged for 4–6 months for firm texture and developed flavor

• Natural, rustic rind with a golden-orange hue

• Produced using traditional Italian methods

A vibrant and exciting cheese that captures the spirit of southern Italy.
