Cheese, Greece
Imagine yourself sitting at a table outside a white-washed taverna with family and friends as you watch the sun setting over the Aegean Sea. You enjoy Manouri with fig spread, Feta drizzled with Extra Virgin olive oil, and Kefalotyri served with rich Greek olives and beans. The essence of good Greek cuisine is its simplicity. That is why igourmet's Greek cheeses are all made by artisans. The sheep and goats that yield the milk are from free-ranging herds, foraging from over two dozen grasses and wild herbs. You can really taste the difference! This collection of cheeses includes:
- Manouri: This is essentially a sheep's milk "cream cheese", made by adding sheep's milk cream to the whey from the feta production. Try some with Glazed Figs. It's fantastic!
- Authentic Barrel-Aged Feta: A perfect blend of sheep and goat's milk produces this rich, incomparable Feta.
- Kasseri: This delicious and traditional cheese is made from a careful blend of 75% sheep's and 25% goat's milk. It has a subtle flavor with a hint of olives on the finish.
