“ARSENIKO” (I.E. “MALE”) KEFALOTIRI OF NAXOS
Naxos Kefalotiri is made of sheep’s and goat’s milk and has a very distinctive taste, as it becomes spicier and more aromatic, the more it ages and matures. It is a perfect “meze” for ouzo and tsipouro.

“METSOVANA” OF METSOVO
A rare cheese from Metsovo, it is made of cow’s milk and matures for two years on wooden shelves. You could say it is the Greek Parmesan; strong taste, hard in texture, and with a spicy aftertaste.

“FETA” OF KEFALONIA
A famous Feta made of goat’s and sheep’s milk, that ages in barrels, where it acquires a rich buttery taste. The king of Greek salad.

“KOPANISTI” OF MYCONOS
