No antibiotics are given the animals whose milk is used to make this fabulous cheese, and it contains no preservatives, additives, or calcium chloride. The cheese rounds are placed in special aging rooms for six months. When left at room temperature for a few hours, the cheese becomes buttery and tastes magnificent. The flavor continues to develop and improve even after it has been packed. Even though kasseri has been made for centuries, the curds are hand-kneaded.
Subsequently, the cheese is consistently rich. After the curd is warmed, it is hand stretched and kneaded, then put into molds.

Our Kasseri, made by Mt Vikos, is made only in the months when the milk is creamy and sweet, from the fresh milk of free-ranging sheep and goats.See less »
