ERKILES SOCIETA' AGRICOLA SEMPLICE

The family-run dairy farm Erkìles is located a few kilometres from the village of Olzai.

The farm is well established within the local community and has been collaborating for more than thirty years with farmers, growers, associations, food product wholesalers and traders.

It also collaborates with local public institutions to promote premium food and wine products and to safeguard the territory of Olzai, Barbagia and the province of Nuoro, also through various joint ventures with the association “The Cannonau wine road”

The farm raises more than five hundred selected Sardinian sheep in the pastures surrounding “Nuraghe Erchiles” and in other mountains in the heart of Barbagia.

Following an old family tradition, the Erkìles dairy farm produces genuine craft pecorino cheeses, using 100% whole sheep’s milk.

In 2011, the farm began producing a line of pecorino cheeses called “Bisine”: a range of innovative products, also marketed abroad. In the same year, it was recognised by the national premium brand. “Qualità vegetariana”.

The Cannonau Bisine is an uncooked cheese. Its aromas are developed and enhanced by a set of combinations, other than those of being uncooked and using unpasteurised milk, the aromas of the cannonau pomace are added, which become even more intense when the edible rind is savoured.

The flavoured Bisine is an unpasteurised milk cheese, flavoured by naturally smoked Mediterranean shrubs leaves.
