Basket feta from Greece is very rare in the USA. Mt. Vikos Basket Feta is made in a traditional manner by a small family dairy in central Greece. The shape of the small basket allows the brine to create a rich flavor and extra creamy texture. Made from fresh milk of free-ranging sheep and goats, this feta cheese is made in months when grasses are green for a sweet flavor. No antibiotics are given the animals. Mt. Vikos contains no preservatives, additives, or calcium chloride. The feta is hand molded into individual basket forms before aging. Product Metrics:
