Katsouli Cheese Factory
In the heart of Argolis, in the small and picturesque village of Koliaki Tracheia, is the family-run Katsouli Cheese Factory, which has earned its place among the 50 best cheese factory destinations in Greece. Since 1989, the Katsoulis family has been producing high quality cheese products, continuing a long tradition started by Vassilis Katsoulis and now continued by his children, Thomas and Garyfallia Katsoulis.
The Katsouli Cheese Company started with the production of traditional Feta and gradually expanded its range of products to include Graviera, Kefalotyri, Myzithra, Anthotiro and the special Mastichoto. Mastichoto is a small production cheese similar to Halloumi in terms of consistency and texture. It is produced like all the cheeses of the cheese factory exclusively from local sheep and goat milk and is available in selected restaurants and delicatessens.
Vassilis Katsoulis founded the cheese factory with the aim of producing excellent quality Feta. With the passage of time and the participation of his children, Thomas and Garifalias, the business expanded and evolved. The two young people, after studying at the Cheese School in Ioannina, returned to the family cheese factory, contributing with their knowledge and energy to the development of the business.
