Product Description

Pretty much every family in Tropoja lives off of eating homemade dairy products, but most people only have cows.  A cow can graze on almost anything (hence their ubiquity and the Dante-horror cows standing knee deep in the municipal dump at Koj, stolidily chewing with a blue plastic bag hanging out the side of their mouths, and god knows what else in their stomachs), but sheep need acres and acres of good, free-range pasture to nibble their ways across.  Sheep are maintained and protected by patient old shepherds, ready at any moment to leap up and fight off the odd wolf, in their own blissful world for:  wool, lamb (meat – sorry!), but ALSO the rarified delicacy of sheep-milk products – like super-rich yoghurt and CHEESE!
