In this study 18 samples of white brined chesses of various producers, produced of cow’s milk, ewe’s milk and their mixtures were collected from local markets, sensory analyzed by untrained panelists/ consumers and their textural properties were determined by texturometer (ta-xt2). In sensory analysis a descriptive test on mouth feeling and affective test on color, flavor, taste and overall acceptability of cheese were performed. Significant correlation coefficients (p<0.05) were established between some of the measured textural values and scores for the cheeses. The measured values of hardness positively correlated with sensory scored hardness of the cheeses (r=0.6096) and toughness (r=0.6471) and negatively with the taste (r=-0.5111). The scores for overall acceptability significantly correlated with the color (r=0.8923), and taste (r=0.9665). It means that the taste is sensory characteristic which mostly influences on the acceptability of cheese by the consumers.
