With its wide and rich diversity across cultures, Cheese offers sensory pleasure and reveals a historical background of the region's traditions, production methods, and stories (Paxson, 2012). In addition to being an important foodstuff, cheese can also be associated with rural areas, the ethnic and ecological structures of those regions, and tourism with the effect of sustainability (Ermolaev et al., 2019). Carlsen and Charter (2006) state that cultural heritage, which is the basis of gastronomy tourism, has the potential to encourage social development and heritage protection. In addition, it emphasizes that with good planning and management, cultural heritage will develop the society economically, and culinary traditions can be preserved together with the products. Therefore, the deep-rooted history and cultural connection of cheese triggers the emergence of tourism destinations and the unique attraction of these tourist centers with traditional products and production techniques, not only in kitchens or tables but also in many parts of the world.
