"Originating from Samegrelo, Smoked Sulguni or Shebolili Megruli Sulguni is a Georgian cheese made from cow's, goat's, buffalo's milk, or a combination of the three. This semi-hard cheese has a dense, springy, and elastic texture underneath its natural rind.

Due to the fact that the cheese is smoked, its aroma is smoky, while the flavors are both smoky and salty. The paste is yellow in color, while the crust is hard and golden brown or dark brown due to the smoking process. Smoked Sulguni melts exceptionally well, and it's recommended to serve it with ghomi, a local porridge that's a staple in Samegrelo," - the publication writes.
