Domty Egyptian Cheese

Thought it was a fancy unknown cheese like "akkawi" or "halloumi".  Turns out Domty is the name of an Egyptian company.

For a minute, I thought they had Kazakh horse meat.  I've tried it a couple of times in New York and Kazakhstan. I guess small (young?) camel meat is tastier than older meat?  Maybe this is the camel equivalent of lamb?  Or veal?
