Niari
Niari is a cheese with short maturing characteristics, a soft colour, a peeled texture and a long-lasting flavour. This premature cheese is a relative product to the Kopanisti, is produced exclusively in our sheep cheese dairy and is a special and new product.
Xinotyro
With taste, texture and aroma that could even compete with Feta, Xinotyro is the epitome of traditional cheese. Its flavour varies depending on the maturing time. Bitter and cool, it retains its special flavour in its short maturing time. While longer maturing, it gives it a pleasant sour and salty taste, that could ideally accompany a number of pasta dishes.
Soft cheese made in our dairy, from sheep’s or cow’s milk, in traditional baskets. A product of wide popular consumption for many years.
Tyrovolia

Vrasto
In addition to the art of cheese making, cheese maker should be gifted with the virtue of patience, if he wants to enjoy the Vrasto.

The first references to Vrasto are made from the ancient times of Ancient Delos, where handwritten papyrus of thousands of years, claim that the King of Delos, in wanting to show his indulgence to the King of Egypt, sent him boxed packages of excellent Vrasto!
