Made from a traditional blend of pasteurised cow, goat, and sheep's milk, its defining characteristic is a uniquely high melting point, the result of a specific curd-heating process that gives it a firm, layered texture unlike any other cheese. The \u003cstrong\u003ePDO certification\u003c\/strong\u003e guarantees that every block is produced according to the original Cypriot method, with no shortcuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRaw\u003c\/em\u003e, halloumi is firm and mildly salty, with a clean, milky flavour lifted by the natural sweetness of the milk blend and a subtle note of dried mint.
