By the end of the four-month maturation, a wonderfully creamy, rich, complex flavor is fully developed. The care that goes into this feta is evident by its incredible characteristics. Its traditional method of production contributes to its full taste, natural aroma and pure white color, properties which have established Feta over the centuries as a unique natural cheese of Greece.
Enjoy this premium feta in a traditional cheese pie, over eggs, stuffed into squash blossoms, or even fried. Or just relax with a slab of feta drizzled with olive oil and garnished with fresh oregano. Opa!Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
Comments about Authentic Barrel-Aged Feta:
Was looking everywhere locally for actual Brine Feta. Was crossing fingers this would be comparable to what I was looking for. I was not disapointed. I will be ordering more.. much more!

Comments about Authentic Barrel-Aged Feta:
I've had lots of fetas, some good, some meh, but this one has been consistently great -- tangy without overwhelming other tastes, enduringly moist without being gicky, and easy to crumble without being dry. I toss it into couscous along with tomatoes, scallions, and pine nuts, or mix it with pasta, balsamic vinegar, spinach, red onions, and walnuts. The taste is always rich and creamy, and the saltiness is up front but not too briny. One small drawback: the shrink-wrap container preserves the feta nicely from source to delivery, but you can't use it to store what's left.

Comments about Authentic Barrel-Aged Feta:
I lived a year in Greece and sampled many barrel-aged fetas. I'm glad to say that this compares to the best I tasted in Greece (a feta from the northern town of Trikkala). Creamy, with serious depth and not excessively salty, I'd recommend the delicious feta in salads, spanakopita, or -- best of all -- as a snacking cheese served with a bowl of Kalamata olives and Retsina or Sauvignon Blanc.

I found it very flavorful, but for some it may be a bit too salty.
