Žigljen cheese is a hard cheese that brings together the best of cow's and sheep's milk, produced in Dalmatia, Lika and Kordun. Inspired by the tradition of cheesemaking on the island of Pag, this cheese is a true Gligora classic that was created in 1996. It started as a blend of Pag sheep's milk and cow's milk from the Zadar hinterland, because in the first year there was not enough Pag milk to produce Pag cheese. This innovative approach quickly conquered the market, and Žigljen became a favourite cheese, recognised for its unique flavour combination. Žigljen has a pronounced aroma and scent, with a compact paste. It matures for a minimum of 6 months, and its recognisable texture and rich flavour make it versatile in the kitchen, perfect for enjoying in different dishes. It has won several international awards, which confirms its top-tier quality. Žigljen is ideally stored at 10-12 °C.

Žigljen — Gligora's celebrated aged classic, made from a traditional blend of sheep's and cow's milk and matured to develop deep character. Named after the traditional Croatian salt-pan (žigljen), the cheese honours the island's centuries-old tradition of salt-and-cheese making. The mixed-milk base gives the cheese balance: the depth and character of sheep's milk lifted by the creamier body of cow's milk.
