Product Description

The Pinnacle of Greek Tradition: Aged in the Heart of Arcadia.

 

Experience the robust, nuanced soul of the Peloponnese with our Vytina Mountain Reserve Feta PDO. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, this artisanal cheese is meticulously aged in charred wooden barrels for a minimum of two months, a traditional method that imparts a sophisticated complexity and a subtly spicy finish.

 

Sourced from the high-altitude pastures of Vytina, a village renowned for its pristine pine forests and crystalline air, this Feta carries the prestigious Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status. The result is a firm yet creamy texture with a flavor profile that balances the tang of premium sheep and goat’s milk with the earthy undertones of the wooden cask.

  • Traditional Maturation: Aged in authentic wooden barrels for superior depth.
  • Geographic Excellence: Produced at 1,033m altitude in the Arcadia mountains.
  • Heritage Quality: Award-winning craftsmanship by Mandrekas.

Perfect for elevating a classic Greek salad, pairing with Kalamata olives, or serving alongside a crisp Assyrtiko wine.

Useful Information

The Vytina Terroir

Perched at an altitude of 1,033 metres in the Peloponnese, Vytina is a hidden gem of the Arcadia Prefecture. Dominated by dense pine and chestnut forests, this unique ecosystem provides a diverse diet for local livestock, which translates directly into the rich, high-fat milk used for our Reserve.

Why Wood Matters

Barrel-ageing is a disappearing art. While modern feta is often aged in steel tins, the wooden barrel allows the cheese to breathe. This interaction creates a "spicier" character that is bold but never overpowering, making it a versatile ingredient for both traditional and contemporary Mediterranean cuisines.
