Korycinski Cheese (Ser Koryciński Swojski)

According to historical sources, the tradition of making the Koryciński reaches the second half of 17th or 18th century. Currently, it is produced by an association of manufacturers established in 2004, composed of 30 members, on farms located in communes of: Korycin, Janów and Suchowola, in the Poviat of Sokółka (Polaskie Voivodeship).
It is a ripening cheese, made of raw, full cow milk with rennet and salt.
Depending on ageing time, it is divided into three types:
* fresh Korycinski – aged 2 – 4 days;
* aged Korycinski – aged 5 -14 days
* mature Korycinski – aged from 14 days to few months.
All the members of the producers’ group make Koryciński using the same method and components. It is a trademark of the region, having a good reputation in northern and central Poland. In 2004 on Polagra Farm fair in Poznan it was awarded the 1st prize and title “Taste of the Year”, “Our Culinary Heritage” contest awarded it with a Pearl award and the title “Podlachian Trademark of the Year in the “Taste” category.
