Product Description
The 'Gold of Lesvos': An Ancient Greek Masterpiece
Experience the authentic taste of the Aegean with Ladotyri Mytilinis PDO, a legendary hard cheese crafted exclusively on the island of Lesvos (Mytilene). Its name, meaning "Oil Cheese", stems from the centuries-old tradition of maturing the wheels in virgin olive oil, resulting in a robust, tangy profile with a sophisticated spicy finish.
Produced from a premium blend of sheep’s milk (min. 70%) and goat’s milk, this 1.2kg whole wheel is a testament to Mediterranean artisanal heritage. It offers a firm texture and a complex aromatic bouquet of wild herbs and toasted nuts.
When to enjoy it:
- Mediterranean Aperitivo: Pair with Kalamata olives, crusty sourdough, and a glass of Ouzo or crisp Assyrtiko wine.
- Dinner with Friends: The centerpiece of any cheese board or served warm as Saganaki (pan-seared cheese).
- Foodie Gift: A unique, high-quality gift for those who appreciate rare, Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) delicacies.
