" MASTELO" DAIRY PRODUCTS

"Mastelo" is the trademark for the dairy products produced in Chios exclusively by Konstantinos Toumazos. They are made of high quality raw materials, fresh full fat Chian cow, goat and organic milk.

The "Mastelo" soft cheese of Chios, made from cow milk is a cheese which was first produced in 1991, the year the business was established. Until then no one had ever used the word "Mastelo" to characterize the cheeses produced in Chios either by local farmers or in the households of farming families on the island. Afterwards, the goat cheese came into production having the trade name "Goat Mastelo" and a few years later the "Organic Goat"s "Mastelo" cheese circulated in the market.

The word mastelo literally means the wooden bucket used for the milk collection and its origin is Venetian. It has been a trademark in Greece and in Europe for all the products of the business since 1994. The collaboration with local producers of cow and goat milk who supply the raw material daily for the production of the "Mastelo" cheeses is a comparative advantage as the local milk is of high quality and taste..

You can find the "Mastelo" products in the local market of Chios, in a continuously expanding network of delicatessen outlets in Athens and in Thessaloniki as well as in many Aegean islands.
