The cheese that holds its shape, its flavour, and its credentials. Halloumi PDO is one of the most distinctive cheeses in the Mediterranean tradition, produced exclusively in Cypru s from a blend of pasteurised cow, goat, and sheep milk. The Protected Designation of Origin certification is not a marketing label: it defines a production method, a geography, and a set of standards that cannot be replicated elsewhere. This 750g format brings that quality to your table at a scale that makes sense. The texture is firm and layered, with a mild, milky saltiness and a faint aroma of fresh mint, which is folded into the cheese during production. Raw, it slices cleanly and holds its structure. Grilled or pan-fried, it develops a golden crust with a soft, yielding interior that no other cheese quite replicates. It does not melt — it transforms. Is 750g too much? Here is why this is the right size. The standard retail cut of Halloumi sits between 200g and 225g. This 750g block is designed for households that cook regularly, families who go through it fast, and professional kitchens that want consistent quality without reordering every week. Once opened, it keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days — and the portion logic is straightforward. 750g yields approximately 3 to 4 standard retail packs Cost per serving is significantly lower than buying multiple small packs Vacuum-sealed until opening: freshness is preserved from production to your kitchen Shipped fresh: what that means in practice. Halloumi PDO is a semi-hard cheese with a shelf life of 12 months from production. It travels refrigerated and arrives vacuum-sealed, which protects both texture and flavour during transit. No preservatives, no compromise.
