Thanks to the unique climate and its specific environment, Bosnia and Herzegovina may be proud of something which much larger countries do not have – beautiful types of cheese. Clean rivers and streams, pearl–like mountain lakes and huge areas for pasture have always been appropriate for cattle breeding development and the cheese production has been present here since the old times. An important characteristic of the cheese is a climate: one must feel regional vegetation in cheese, herbs from certain region, and a domestic tradition of producing has to be respected. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, as it is a rare case anywhere, there are extraordinary conditions for top-quality cheeses.
