Produced exclusively from the milk of the autochthonous sheep on the Island of Pag, Paški Sir is the most famous ewes' milk cheese in all of Croatia. This is a one-year-aged pasteurized cheese made from the sheep raised on the island of Pag, Croatia. There are a total of 40,000 sheep and 8,000 humans on the island of Pag. The sheep are a special breed, smaller than average with limited milk production. The island is windy with little vegetation, what little grass it has is in the hills, and due to the crosswinds much of the salt water blows over it. The sheep produce very little milk, maximum just a liter per day. On top of that their diet is influenced by the salty grass they eat. In total it takes 6 sheep or more to produce one wheel of cheese. Our producer is Paška Sirana. They have 200 members who together have 300 sheep. The cheesemaker, Nenad, has been making cheese for 15 years. The cheese is rich and flavorful – it is not overly dry and there is a beautiful crystallinity in the texture with a gentle sweetness. Traditionally this aged cheese is served chunked and crumbled with olive oil.
  • Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.
  • Photo depicts whole 5 lb. form of cheese.
  • We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.
  • Please contact us if you would like to purchase the whole form.

Latest Customer Reviews for Paski Sir (Pag Island Cheese)

Family favourite
Had a sheep cheese tasting with extended family. Cubes of different cheeses, each followed by fruit. THIS one was the favorite, the one people actually wrote down in order to purchase on their own. While it may traditionally be served with olive oil, it is also great with fruit, and as a stand alone table cheese.

Yummy
I had the pleasure of this cheese on vacation in Croatia, but not from this co-op. No question about it, this is an outstanding cheese. VERY pricey though and comparable can be had for much less. I mean, $32/pound is quite a lot. But for me it takes me back to a fun vacation, a beautiful country and is worth the price for that alone. Just not every day. It is salty as the review says, though not overly so. I think it is comparable to Parmesan though a bit softer. Not a cheese expert and don't have a refined palate but I know what I like!

I missed this cheese for over a year until I found it on your website. It is much like the Spanish Manchego but with more depth of flavor
