Pecorino di Forenza is an artisanal cheese typical of Basilicata and is handmade by the family business Il Parco delle Bontà. Also known as Pecorone di Forenza, it has a crumbly texture and a full flavor where the sweet is balanced with the salty, and it releases intense vegetal notes on the nose. This aged pecorino is very flavorful and at the same time fine and complex. Its production process follows the same artisanal procedures that were carried out several centuries ago: in fact, it is one of the oldest cheeses in central Italy. It has a maturation that varies from a minimum of 4 months to a maximum of 12 months. Pecorino di Forenza: Awards received. This unique pecorino has received prestigious accolades: 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 place II Edizione Concorso Nazionale "Formaggio Pecorino" category "Stagionati", Mondaino (RN) June 2005.
