An example of guaranteed authenticity: PDO certification for Paški Sir cheese from Croatia

Show transcript

Paški Sir cheese is protected under the European Union since 2019,

so we got the PDO mark.

That means that this cheese can only be produced on the island of Pag, and nowhere

else, and from the milk of Pag sheep.

The secret of our cheese is exactly in the vegetation of this island,

it is a poor vegetation but very rich in flavours.

The nature is the only responsible for the quality of this cheese.

For me and also for all the people from Pag, Paški Sir cheese is more than food,

it's more than cheese.

It's part of our identity, part of our tradition.

PDO mark means that cheese is really unique and it can only be produced here.
