Picture of barrel-aged feta cheese
Picture depicts a 6 oz. cheese.

Barrel-aged feta is made from fresh milk of free-ranging sheep and goats. This feta cheese is made during months when grasses are green for a sweet flavor in the traditional manner by a small family dairy in central Greece.

The Greek feta is molded into large round forms, which is then stacked into 120-pound barrels and sold in 6 oz. pieces. The cheese ages in these wooden barrels for 4 months allowing the cheese to become complex and rich in flavor. The texture of the cheese is compact, slightly crumbly and creamy. The flavor is creamy, slightly tangy and it tastes like sweet milk.
