Cork & sheep milk cheese

Countryside, it’s here where Sardinia’s rustic charms are showcased to high effect. Sardinia is the only region in Italy that produces cork, thanks to its ancient oak cork groves; sustainably produced by shaving off the outer layer of bark, allowing the rest of the tree to grow.
A cork oak must be at least three decades old before it can be harvested.

Therefore cork industry has suffered in recent years there is a movement to market corks as a sustainable, green alternative. Cork is also incorporated as a material in traditional artwork or everyday household items like trays. You’ll also see a lot of sheep, nearly 4 million of them—one of the highest densities in the world. The indigenous Sarda sheep is a domestic breed which produces the best milk for pecorino sardo cheese.
