Sheep’s Milk Cheese

Sheep’s Milk Cheese


Sheep’s milk cheese tends to be more expensive and that is because Sheep produce less milk by volume than cows or goats. To put this into perspective milked twice a day, sheep produce one quart of milk, goats produce 3-5 quarts of milk and cows produce 8-20 quarts per day. In general, sheep milk is sweet and nutty and has a distinct flavor characteristic often described as wooly. Sheep milk has a higher fat content than either cow or goat milk.
