This cheese is ideal for tasting on bread or paired with fruits.
Brocciu, the flagship product of the Isle of Corsica, is available from October to May. This cheese is made from sheep whey, offering a delicate and creamy texture. In summer months, brousse, made from milk powder, takes over. The ingredients are simple and high-quality, including sheep whey, raw sheep's milk (EU origin), and salt. The container holds 500 g of this artisanal delight from Fromagerie Pierucci, founded in 1912 by Francesca Pierucci. Located south of Bastia, this family-run cheese factory is committed to preserving Corsican culinary heritage by collaborating with about sixty local farms for milk collection. Ideal for tasting as an appetizer, on bread, or as a dessert, brocciu is a must-try in Corsican gastronomy. Good storage, keep refrigerated and consume quickly after opening.
