unearthed Barrel Aged Feta is produced in Greece at the Roussas dairy. The cheese recently won a Gold Award at the World Cheese Awards. We always knew that the Feta we had discovered was one of the very best and now it is official!
Barrel Aged Feta is better!
So, what makes it so good? Well, it is hand cut into blocks (shaped like those Trivial Pursuit segments) and packed in to traditional Beech wood barrels where it matures for a minimum of 4 months. This gives it a slightly drier texture and more intense flavour than most feta.
Another reason why our feta is so tasty is that it is made with a blend of sheep and goat’s milk. This is one of the traditional varieties – some feta is made with just sheep’s milk – and we think that the combination makes for a more balanced cheese.
We hope you agree!
