Greek Mythology Dairy Branding

The Polyphemus Greek Cheeses Have Unexpected Flavor Profiles

Drawing inspiration from Greek mythology for the brand's name and packaging, the Polyphemus Greek cheeses feature a branding that's modern, tasteful and interactive. Designed by the Foodwill creative agency, the Polyphemus dairy products packaging features a sliding aesthetic that allows each piece of cheese to be revealed with care and detail.

The Polyphemus brand draws inspiration for its name from the one-eyed cyclops from Homer's Odyssey that is acknowledged as the first person to create feta cheese.

Each of the Polyphemus Greek cheeses is crafted from quality ingredients and includes such flavor varieties as watermelon and honey, amongst several others. The ocular aesthetic of the Polyphemus logo creates a direct correlation to the cyclops it shares a name with.
