Likotin is Gligora's Adriatic classic — a hard cheese made from 100% sheep's milk sourced from the Lika highlands, where the harsh mountain climate and diverse pastures shape the milk's exceptional character. Pale, dense paste with pronounced structure and a beautifully layered flavour: deep milkiness lifts to notes of dry grass, mountain herbs and a whisper of sea air; long, savoury and cleanly aromatic. This 650 g quarter wheel is the format for the serious cheese-board — slice onto boards, cube into salads, shave over pasta, or serve with fresh bread and olives.650 g · Sirana Gligora, Kolan, Pag Island, Croatia · 100% sheep's milk from Lika · Hard cheese · Quarter wheel
Liburjan, 650 g

Liburjan, 650 g

A firm, aged cheese made from a traditional blend of sheep's, cow's and goat's milk — the three milks that shaped Adriatic dairy tradition. The three-milk base delivers uncommon complexity: depth and character from sheep, creamy body from cow, brightness and clean herbal tang from goat — all layered into a beautifully balanced whole with a clean lactic depth, a lightly saline finish, and a hint of Mediterranean herbs from the pastures of Pag.This 650 g quarter wheel is the serious format for the cheese-board lover — shave it over risotto and salads, or place it as the star of a board with Malvazija, Pošip or a lighter Plavac Mali, alongside olives, honey and cured meats.650 g · Sirana Gligora, Kolan, Pag Island, Croatia · Sheep's, cow's & goat's milk blend · Aged · Quarter wheel

The most concentrated expression of the legendary Paški sir — Croatia's only PDO sheep's milk cheese, now aged for a minimum of 12 months to develop its most intense, complex character. Crafted on the wind-scoured island of Pag, where the fierce bura wind and sparse, salt-dusted pastures give the native Pag sheep's milk an unrivalled depth of flavour. After ageing, the paste becomes firm and granular, the colour deepens to a rich amber-ivory, and the aroma fills the room with notes of roasted nuts, dry hay, and aged butter. On the palate, long-crystallised tyrosine crystals deliver a satisfying crunch, while the finish lingers with a gentle, savoury sweetness that only time can produce. At 225 g, this is the ideal size for a premium cheese board, an elevated aperitivo moment, or a considered gift for someone who truly appreciates fine cheese.
