Graviera Cheese -200gr
A true classic, Graviera reflects both heritage and craftsmanship - a timeless taste of Greece. Firm yet smooth, Graviera is golden in colour with a slightly sweet, nutty flavour that deepens as it matures. Enjoy it sliced on a cheese board, grated over pasta, or simply paired with bread and honey for a traditional Greek treat.
First crafted in 1914 in the village of Manolada, in western Peloponnese, Graviera is one of Greece’s most beloved cheeses. Inspired by the techniques of Swiss Gruyère but made with rich, high-quality sheep’s milk from the surrounding region, it carries a distinctly Greek character.

Tasting Notes: The paste is hard and its colour is yellow with some irregular large eyes scattered across. Â The taste is round, buttery, soft, nutty and full on the palate with strong hints of nuts and long scents of grass and nature. The aftertaste is round, sweet, buttery with delicate hints of butter and nature.
Serving Suggestions: Fry it up as traditional saganaki, melt it into pasta or risotto, stir into creamy béchamel, or simply tear off a piece with rustic bread. For something different, try it alongside dried fruits for a sweet-savoury twist.
Pairs beautifully with bold, full-bodied red wines.
