Graviera Naxou P.D.O. 12 Months Matured
Naxos Graviera P.O.P. that has been matured for at least 12 months which makes it a table cheese with a rich aroma, spicy taste and intense aftertaste. Hard yellow cheese. It is one of the few PDO Greek cheeses made only from cow’s milk. A cheese which, listening to the voice of gourmets for a fuller and richer taste, we kept it in the ripening room for 12 months. A product that can look the best cheeses in the world in the face. Its long maturation has given it a taste and character that the best parmesan would envy.
About Producer
A family business whose roots go back to 1970 when Manolis Pittaras bought a calf for his children to drink milk. The family’s love for animals made this farm become the largest cow’s milk production unit located on an island. Starting with love and a full sense of responsibility from sowing the seeds for the production of the feed to harvesting it, feeding the animals exclusively from non-GMO feed, milking and transporting the milk to the dairy, since 2009 in Melanes of Naxos, the Pittaras Cheese Factory has been creating fine traditional products, made from fresh cow’s milk that comes exclusively from the privately owned farm.
