Krasotyri

Krasotyri is a traditional cheese originating from Kos. The cheese is made from sheep's or goat's milk (or a combination). The milk is warmed, pasteurized, placed into containers, then traditional elongated wicker molds where it drains.

After it's out of the mold, the cheese is placed in brine, drained, then combined with wine sediment and left to age for up to 20 days. The result is a distinct flavor of wine. The texture is delicate and soft, and the aromas are reminiscent of wine.
