Papathanasiou – Graviera Cheese 200g
Graviera is a Greek cheese that is perfect for everyday cooking: it can be sliced for a cheese board, grated into dishes, and baked. Graviera Papathanasiou, made from goat and sheep milk from Peloponnese, has a mature, dry character and a pleasant "cheesy" finish. It's a good choice when you want simple ingredients but a flavour that you can truly taste.
Taste and texture
A firm, mature cheese with an elastic texture. Its flavour is dry, slightly buttery, with a delicate nutty note typical of graviera, and a pleasantly distinct finish resulting from the combination of goat and sheep milk. It slices well, grates perfectly, and when heated, it melts appetisingly and browns nicely.
