Pecorino di Filiano is a firm cheese from the Basilicata region of Italy made from sheep milk. It was granted protected designation of origin (PDO) in 2007.[2]
Pecorino di Filiano is produced in the province of Potenza.[3]
Every year on the first Sunday of September in Filiano is organized the pecorino di Filiano festival, where the cheese, produced by various farmers, is available to taste and buy.[4]
