Parenica Cheese 200g

Parenica is a traditional Slovak cow's cheese smoked over fragrant oak chips for a deep and intensely aromatic flavour with irresistible smoky notes.

What is Parenica Cheese?

It is a unique style of originally Slovakian cheese, woven from strips into its distinctive spiral shape, then steamed and smoked to achieve a characteristically intense aroma and rich taste. 

This World Cheese Awards-winner is crafted using traditional methods from premium, pasteurised cow’s milk from local cattle. It is expertly smoked for a complex and authentic experience, making it a must-try for cheese enthusiasts and connoisseurs.

How can I use it?

• It is the perfect pairing for smoked charcuterie, as its bold flavour stands up to the cured meat.
• Serve it as a centrepiece for your cheese boards, as its novel appearance will make for a great conversation starter.
• Enjoy with a glass of full-bodied and oak-aged red wine, as the smoky notes of barrel spices will beautifully complement the cheese.
