OMIROS Light White Brine Cheese is made of 100% Greek sheep’s milk. It has a rich taste and 40% less fat. It is an ideal addition to a light meal but also an excellent ingredient for unique light recipes. OMIROS was founded by the Giannitsi family in 1984 and was named after the Ancient Greek poet Homer (Omiros in Greek), who made the earliest reference to the cheese we now call “FETA” in the text of his “Odyssey”. According to the legend, Polyphemus the Cyclops became the first cheesemaker when he accidentally discovered that the milk he had been storing in sheepskin bags would clot and become edible. That’s how the production of feta cheese began in Ancient Greece. The production of OMIROS products is based on traditional techniques of the local cheese makers. The family has been producing cheese products of exceptional taste and quality for five generations.
