Mt Athos Organic Feta is a traditional Greek feta made from a blend of organic goat’s and sheep’s milk, produced in Northern Greece by the Roussas Family Dairy. Brined rather than barrel-aged, it offers a clean, fresh expression of feta—creamy, crumbly, and full of pastoral character.

Heritage and Philosophy

Founded in 1952, the Roussas Family Dairy has deep roots in traditional Greek cheesemaking. Their organic range reflects a commitment to sustainability and purity—from the soil to the milk to the finished product. Milk is sourced from a network of organic-certified small farms, and each batch of feta is carefully prepared using time-honoured techniques.

Aged in brine, Mt Athos Organic Feta stays moist and crumbly with a clean, milky profile—offering a lighter alternative to barrel-aged versions without sacrificing authenticity.


Flavor and Texture

  • Texture: Crumbly yet moist, firm enough to cube or slice, but soft enough to spread slightly. A gentle, creamy body that dissolves delicately on the tongue.

  • Flavour: Bright and tangy, with the freshness of goat’s milk and the richness of sheep’s milk. Lightly salty, with balanced acidity and a subtle herbal undertone.

  • Aroma: Clean, lactic aroma with faint notes of wildflowers and fresh yoghurt.


Appearance

The paste is bright white and compact, with a smooth, slightly granular finish typical of traditional feta. The organic version comes in modest-sized blocks, ideal for salads, platters, and simple table service.


Pairing Suggestions

Food: Crumble over watermelon and mint, stuff into vine leaves, or serve with grilled vegetables and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

Wine & Beer: Try with a sparkling wine, dry rosé, or Riesling. Also pairs beautifully with blonde beers and Pilsners.


Naturally Greek

Mt Athos Organic Feta brings together traditional Greek cheese wisdom and modern organic farming. Its pure flavour, creamy texture, and pastoral freshness make it a staple in Mediterranean-style cooking—and a beautiful, honest cheese for everyday enjoyment.

Ingredients: Pasteurised sheep & goat's milk, salt, cultures, non animal rennet.
