Those who prefer good-quality cheeses and fantastic lamb should not miss theisland of Pag, as it is best known for precisely those two things.Paški sir, or the cheese from Pag, is an authentic local delicacy produced exclusively using the milk of the sheep that have been raised on the island and that feed on aromatic herbs, which give the cheeses their special flavor. These cheeses arefamous not only in Croatia but across the world. This is evident in the numerous awardspaški sirhas walked away with on the world stage,as well as the fact that, three years ago at theGlobal Cheese Awardsin the UK, the cheese made by Paška Sirana was named the world’s best cheese made from sheep’s milk. Who would not want to try it knowing all that?

If you do visit Pag, you will see that most of it is barren and moonlike. This interesting feature, although desolate and bleak at first sight, is an attraction in itself.

They say that these conditions, coupled with the already mentioned aromatic herbs the sheep feed on, givePag lambmeatits unique and exceptional taste. Pag lamb is one of Croatia’s most famous delicacies, beloved by both locals and their guests, and true gourmands never miss a visit to Pag on their travels through Croatia.
