Menikio Goat Cheese is produced by the Menikio dairy from the Drama region, a company known for its controlled, sustainable approach to milk processing. The cheese is made exclusively from goat’s milk sourced from farms around Mount Falakro, where the animals’ natural diet shapes the clean, herbal and mildly aromatic character of the milk.
The production process is simple, with minimal intervention, allowing the natural qualities of goat’s milk to stand out clearly. Its texture is semi-hard, compact and easy to slice, while the flavor combines mildness, gentle acidity and a characteristic yet subtle goat note.
The aroma is clean, marked by herbal nuances and a light mineral touch that reflects the mountain microclimate. This cheese works well as a table cheese, in salads, pasta dishes and baked recipes, and thanks to its firm structure, it is also suitable for grilling.
Menikio produces it in small batches, emphasizing hygiene, quality control and the absence of artificial additives, ensuring a consistent and reliable final product.
