Sulguni

Sulguni is a cylindrical Georgian cheese originating from the region of Samegrelo (Mingrelia). The cheese has a mild, yet complex flavor and a semi-firm texture. It can be produced from the milk of cows, buffalos, and goats (rarely), or a combination of the three.

The flavors range from acidic, tangy, and sour to salty and smoky, depending on the varieties – fresh, smoked, or semi-hard. The cheese melts easily so it is often used as a pizza topping, but it can also be added to various salads or pasta dishes.
