Essex Feta is a true standout, crafted with care and precision from sheep's milk sourced exclusively from a single farm in the island of Lesbos, Greece. The farm is nestled in a volcanic caldera, where the sheep graze on wild herbs and grasses, giving the milk a unique richness. This traditional, PDO-protected feta is hand-packed and matured in brine for several months, resulting in a bright, tangy flavor that’s balanced with a creamy texture.
What makes Essex Feta extraordinary is its focus on minimal processing and natural aging. Aged in stainless steel, this feta maintains a moist, slightly crumbly consistency with a fine, melt-in-your-mouth creaminess. Unlike mass-produced varieties, Essex Feta preserves the natural integrity of its ingredients, offering an authentic taste that’s both bold and delicate. Its savory profile is enhanced by subtle herbal notes that reflect the sheep’s natural diet.
Perfect for Mediterranean dishes, Essex Feta crumbles beautifully over salads, pairs wonderfully with olives, or can be blended into creamy dip. Its versatility shines whether you're enhancing simple meals or creating gourmet recipes
