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.
  • Kefalotyri: This traditional unpasteurized sheep's milk cheese has been produced in various regions of Greece since Byzantine times. A hard cheese, Kefalotyri is the first cheese to be produced at the start of each new milking season, ensuring that its milk was taken just after the lambs were weaned.
This assortment contains three 1/2 pound cheeses.
  • Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.
