Grobnički sir

Grobnički sir is a Croatian cheese produced in the Grobnik valley, near the city of Rijeka. It is made from sheep's milk and has a cylindrical shape. The cheese is chalky-white in color and hard and granulated in texture, filled with numerous circular or elliptical eyes throughout its body.

The flavor is very salty, yet pleasant. Grobnik cheese matures in brine for up to one year, so it doesn't have a rind. It is recommended to consume it as an appetizer with local ham.
