Erzincan Tulum Cheese 1 kg
600 ₺ Tax IncludedWith a history spanning a thousand years, Erzincan tulum is one of the most precious examples of Anatolia's ancient cheese culture.
An average of 6-7 litres of milk is used for each kilogram, which explains its intense flavour profile.
The cheese dough, kneaded by hand by master craftsmen, is aged in tulums (bags) made from goatskin.
The ageing period varies by season; winter cheese ages longer and develops a bolder character.
Tulums produced at different altitudes in highland pastures show unique characteristics and can be distinguished by tasting experts.
The 1-kilogram format is ideal for entertaining guests and long-term consumption; it retains its freshness for weeks after opening.
Protected by the international Slow Food movement, this cheese is an artisanal product passed down through generations.
Dried fruits, walnuts, and honey mixtures served alongside the cheese balance the complex aromas of tulum cheese.
In addition to traditional breakfast tables, it can be used in gourmet sandwiches, pasta dishes, and special risotto recipes.
By purchasing this product, you also contribute to the sustainable economy of local producers and support the preservation of cultural heritage.
