Cretan graviera PDO matured 7m 300gr

The symbol of the Cretan Diet, Graviera, obtains a different “shade”. Cretan Graviera PDO Matured Kalogeraki arrives on our table after a seven month ripening. It is ideal for those who desire something different in taste.

Graviera is the most popular cheese in Crete, and there are several reasons for its popularity.

Its excellent quality, the traditional method of preparation, its pure materials and its delightful taste, make it unique and secure for it a place in the table of every family in Crete.

The flagship of the traditional Cretan nutrition carries with it a history of many centuries, and with respect to its history it is that we produce it in our modern facilities.

The Cretan Graviera is a yellow, hard, table cheese with asymmetric holes throughout its tasteful body, and a natural crust. It has a uniquely delightful semi sweet and salty taste that inspires a feeling of euphoria and well-being with every bite.

Cretan Graviera can be part of your salad, make your toast a real delicacy, or bring a note of tradition to the side of any meal.
