The extra-aged Žigljen cheese (6-12 months) is the result of careful aging of a blend of the finest cow's and sheep's milk, produced in Dalmatia, Lika, and Kordun. This hard cheese, first introduced to the Croatian market in 2009, has since won the hearts of cheese lovers with its unique combination of flavor and texture. Žigljen matures for 6 months or longer, during which it loses up to a third of its mass, resulting in a firmer structure and a more intense, sharper taste. It is regularly maintained, turned, and oiled, ensuring top quality and a rich flavor. Žigljen has won numerous international awards, confirming its exceptional quality.
