About our cheeses:
THE MILK - fresh, natural, herbal.
The primary reason Mt. Vikos cheeses taste great is the quality and freshness of our milk. All milk used in making our cheese is a blend of sheep and goat's milk. The herds are free-ranging, grazing on the hillsides, eating wild grasses, herbs, wildflowers, and local vegetation. Since the animals are outside, there is no reason to give them any antibiotics or hormones. The shepherds who tend the herds do the actual milking. The fresh milk is brought to the dairy where it is pasteurized and made into cheese the very next day. We do not use calcium chloride in our cheeses as a stabilizer or binder. The milk is fresh, herbal, and clean.
