Hi there!

Is there anyone in this sub, who can help me out and tell me, what the cheese on the photo is called?
I bought it in Tbilisi in the country of Georgia, but there wasn’t a tag on it, and the salesperson and I had quite a language barrier, so I wasn’t able to ask. The store sold only local Georgian cheeses.

I’d be so thankful because it tastes heavenly and I’d love to buy it again!!!

    Tenili? I just googled Georgian cheeses and it looks similar

  2. OG string cheese, formally known as Chechil. Sometimes called Armenian braided cheese as well. I see it for sale at corner stores through Quebec quite often. It’s not unusual to see it seasoned with black caraway seeds, although I’ve found a cayenne seasoned variant that is delicious.

    Oddly, it looks like someone bought a ton of cheese sticks and took them apart for you. LOL (it looks really good, actually!)

  4. Tel peyniri or çeçil

    In Georgian: ჩეჩილი
