Paski Sir
oil on wood, 8x8"
Paški Sir DOP (Pag Island Cheese) is one of Croatia's most beloved cheeses. It's made exclusively on the tiny island of Pag with milk from the indigenous breed of sheep known as the Paška Ovca, which feed on the salty grasses scattered throughout the rocky, windswept land. It takes milk from about 10-12 sheep in order to make 1 wheel. Though the cheese can be found in both young and aged forms, this wedge was aged at least for 1 year.
Full flavored, its crystalline paste with notes that are saline, sheepy, and butterscotchy without becoming too dry.
Paški Sir received a Protected Designation of Origin (DOP) in 2019, officially recognizing the great importance of the cheese and the place in which it is made.
