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.

Storage & Handling

Customer photo review of Feta Barrel Aged Vytina PDO - around 500g

Wir haben diesen Feta auf Korfu im Hotel Domes Miramare entdeckt – und er hat wirklich alle anderen Fetas in den Schatten gestellt. Wieder zuhause in Deutschland habe ich mich sofort auf die Suche gemacht. Über einen Bekannten aus der griechischen Gastronomie bin ich schließlich auf diesen Shop gestoßen – und Bingo: genau der richtige Käse! Bestellung? Super einfach. Lieferung? Mega schnell, mit top Status-Updates. Geschmack? Einfach wow – genauso wie damals auf Korfu. Besonders finde ich, dass der Feta nicht nur in Folie, sondern zusätzlich in Pergamentpapier verpackt ist. Vielleicht liegt genau darin der Unterschied, warum er so frisch und aromatisch schmeckt. Kurz gesagt: absoluter Lieblings-Feta, wir genießen ihn regelmäßig und bestellen sicher bald Nachschub! 🧀

Questa feta è veramente molto buona. Giustamente sapida e non salatissima come quelle fette sottovuoto che si trovano comunemente nei supermercati!. Oltretutto rimane compatta e non si sbriciola diventantando una poltiglia!! Grazie

Is original, barrel-aged feta cheese really different from the bricks you get from the supermarket? YES! This one was crumbly but not chalky at all, not as salty as expected, and slightly tangier. A really tasty cheese to crumble in your salad, or on top of pasta - or even to eat as-is!

Great feta! Just a bit disappointed that some products need to be used very quickly for reasons related to transport and conservation.
