Artisanal Ios Goat Kefalotyri – 100% Pure Goat Milk (Approx. 3.3kg Whole Wheel)

Kefalotyri is widely regarded as the patriarch of Greek cheeses, the oldest and most beloved tradition in Hellenic dairy history. This specific variety from the island of Ios represents a true gastronomic rarity: unlike the standard recipe, which uses a blend of sheep and goat milk, this Kefalotyri is crafted exclusively from 100% pure goat’s milk.

The result is a cheese with a bold personality, balanced saltiness, and an intense aroma reminiscent of the wild herbs found across the Aegean landscape. Its firm texture makes it exceptionally versatile:

• On the cheeseboard: Pairs beautifully with fresh fruit and a structured white wine.
• In the kitchen: Grated over pasta, it adds a savoury, sophisticated twist to any dish.
• For gatherings: The 3.3kg whole wheel is ideal for catering, large dinners, or connoisseurs who appreciate a healthy, calcium-rich ingredient with superior ageing potential.

Where it comes from

In the heart of the Cyclades, the Niotiko dairy transforms milk from free-grazing animals into high-quality treasures. By combining modern standards with ancestral methods, they preserve the milk's nutritional integrity without the use of preservatives or additives. Every bite is a sensory journey through the rugged pastures and sea breezes of Ios.
