The Tuscan Cheese Gift Hamper with 9 cheeses is a Christmas hamper for anyone who loves pecorino and the flavours of Tuscany: nine artisan cheeses, from Pecorino Toscano DOP to aged Marzolino Imperatore, about 3.5 kg in total. Each cheese is vacuum-packed and everything arrives in a Salumeria Toscana gift box, ready to give.
🧀 Why it is different from ordinary cheese hampers
It is not a random assortment: the nine cheeses cover the whole Tuscan cheesemaking tradition, from fresh to long-aged, from the classics to the more unusual. There is soft caciotta, young and aged Pecorino DOP, cheeses with pepper and with chilli, Pecorino del Noce aged in walnut leaves and Marzolino Imperatore.
Every producer in our artisanal Tuscan selection is tasted in person before joining the catalogue. Individual vacuum packing protects each cheese in transit and makes it easier to store once it arrives.

🔪 How to serve it: the Tuscan cheese board
Take the cheeses out of the fridge half an hour before serving and arrange them from mildest to strongest, so each flavour comes through without overwhelming the palate. To learn more about the king of Tuscan cheeses, read our guide to aged Pecorino Toscano DOP.
The recommended tasting order
Start with the fresh, delicate Tuscan caciotta. Move on to the Marzolino Paglia e Fieno and the cheese with pepper for more complex notes, then to the Pecorino Toscano DOP and the aged Pecorino Toscano DOP for structure and depth. Finish with the Pecorino del Noce and the aged Marzolino Imperatore, the most persistent of the selection.
The wild card on the board
The cheese with chilli creates contrast: try it with a drizzle of acacia honey or with extra virgin olive oil on unsalted Tuscan bread.

🍯 Pairings
With aged pecorino the Tuscan classic is honey: try the organic chestnut honey with the stronger cheeses and the organic acacia honey with the milder ones. Mostardas such as pear mostarda go well with Marzolino and young pecorino; ripe pears, walnuts and almonds complete the board.
In the glass: Vernaccia di San Gimignano with caciotta and semi-aged cheeses, and a structured red such as Vino Nobile di Montepulciano with aged pecorino and Marzolino Imperatore.
