Sulguni is not mozzarella, exactly

Sulguni and mozzarella are both pasta-filata cheeses — meaning the curds are heated, stretched, and pulled. They share a family tree. But sulguni is brined for 24 hours, which gives it a saltier, more complex flavor. And the texture is denser — you can slice it, grill it, even smoke it. Mozzarella is fresh and milky. Sulguni is savory and robust.
