Feta is the national cheese of Greece, and surely the best-known Greek cheese in the US. Our Barrel-aged Feta is produced from December through April from a blend of all-natural milk from free-range sheep and goats, whose milk is richer than cow's milk in calcium, vitamin B and proteins. Curd is molded in large round forms, which are hand-turned frequently as they drain. As the whey drains, the cheese-crafter adjusts timing to perfect each form's texture. After skillful dry-salting, wheels are placed in birch barrels for aging and preservation. There they sit in a 7% brine solution that originally allowed farmers to preserve their milk in the hot Mediterranean climate. Today that brine gives feta its characteristic tang.

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!
  • Made from pasteurized sheep's and goat's milk.

Latest Customer Reviews for Authentic Barrel-Aged Feta

Feta the Way it Should Be!
I've ordered this several times before & still love it. Perfect texture & tang - & best of all, not overly salty like so many commercial brands. You can actually taste the cheese instead of just salt.

Better Than 60 Yrs. Ago
Last and only time I ever had feta cheese was 60 yrs. ago in a little cafe in Norton Mass. I didn't like it.I'm 78 now, braver, too. I tried again and boy do I love this one! Great with Brisling sardines.

EXCELLENT FETA
Thoroughly enjoyed this product. Far superior to U.S. feta versions. Reminded me of the feta I ate as a kid growing up. Will definitely order again.

Fantastic
I wanted you to know how fantastic the quality of the cheese was and how wonderful the service was. My Greek cousins thought the cheese was the best they have had - and this is saying a lot. We are a stereotypical Greek family that picks apart food seventeen different ways (all while still eating it, of course). There was nothing to criticize with this cheese. Several family members asked for information on how to order some and we had the lovely card you sent with the cheese to refer them to - also a wonderful touch. So thank you for being such a great part of our reunion and bringing a touch of authentic Greek food to the event. I will also be ordering more of this wonderful cheese - the flavor and consistency is the best I've had. Your company is always so courteous and prompt any time I place an order - I've been happy all around with the experience of ordering from your company.

Like being back in Turkey
Feta or Beyaz Peynir is the most eaten cheese in Turkey too. This is a great cheese and took me back to the villages on the Bodrum peninsula where I used to live. Excellent.

Good Review
Great selection of cheese. The feta cheese is really authentic in taste. It is hard to find good feta cheese in this country as it is not that popular. Service was fast and customer service was a pleasure to deal with.

A Wonderful Greek Feta
A nice quality Feta.....creamier than regular store bought here in the U.S., but too salty for me. For those who can eat salty things it's a wonderful Feta.
