It’s likely that if you’ve been lucky enough to taste cheese in Croatia, chances are, it’s from Gligora. With a history that dates back to 1918 when Ivan Gligora’s grandfather began producing Pag cheese in Kolan on the island of Pag, the Gligora Dairy brand was soon born, and its success – inevitable.
Over the years, the Gligora brand has grown as home to Croatia’s most prized dairy products. With over 50 employees at work every day, the factory produces over 450 tons of various cheeses annually, including about 50 tons of Pag cheese, with milk to make Pag cheese purchased from 200 partners from Pag, Dalmatia, Lika, and Kordun (for other cheese types).
International awards crown every year of work.
This time, the extra old Pag cheese, Likotin ripened in cherry Maraska, and Kozlar from olive pomace were awarded two stars, and Pag cheese and Težački cheese from wine must with one star at the 2021 Great Taste Awards in the UK!
