Žigljen cheese from maraska pomace is a premium specialty that brings tradition and innovation together. Inspired by old methods, our cheesemakers immerse the cheese in maraska pomace, known for its rich aroma, which gives the cheese a special natural moisture and the unique notes of the autochthonous Zadar maraska cherry. This refinement process allows the cheese to develop an intense aroma and a compact texture. Žigljen, a blend of cow's and sheep's milk from Dalmatia, Lika and Kordun, matures for 4-12 months and becomes even richer after refinement in maraska pomace. The result is a gourmet treat with a pronounced aroma and a special texture. This unique cheese is excellent for all lovers of cheeses with character, and it's at its best when stored at 4-16 °C.

What's in the set? Pag Cheese (PDO) – The king of Croatian cheeses: Made from 100% sheep's milk from the island of Pag, this cheese with the protected designation of origin (PDO) matures for 6 to 12 months. It is characterised by an intense aroma, a grainy texture and a rich flavour of pastures rich in sea spray and medicinal herbs. Kolan Cheese – Tradition and quality: A hard cheese made from 100% cow's milk, aged for a minimum of 4 months. Inspired by the Trappists, Kolan has become synonymous with premium cow's milk cheese in Croatia, recognisable for its pleasant aromas and firm structure. Kozlar Cheese – Freshness of Dalmatia: A semi-hard cheese made from 100% goat's milk from northern Dalmatia. The younger cheese (1-2 months) has mild and pleasant aromas and is ideal for those looking for a lighter yet characterful goat cheese. Serving suggestion: Build a premium "Gligora platter" – cut the cheeses into triangles and serve with Dalmatian prosciutto, olives, dried figs and walnuts. Each cheese has its own wine: Kozlar loves a fresh Malvazija, Kolan pairs with lighter reds, while Pag cheese calls for a full-bodied Plavac Mali or Teran.

Discover the variety of Croatian pastures through three legendary cheeses from the Gligora Creamery.

Dinarski cheese: A unique blend of goat's milk from southern Dalmatia and cow's milk from inland Croatia. Dinarski cheese is a multi-award-winning delicacy with a distinctive, mildly piquant aroma that comes from quality goat's milk. Serving suggestion: Serve the cheeses with homemade prosciutto, capers and nuts.
