Sample Schönegger Käse-Alm's Carrot Cheese and dream of the tastes and pleasures of a Bavarian summer day: a picnic lunch of hearty whole grain bread, fresh butter, cheese and summer fruits spread out near a rushing mountain stream and flower-filled meadow bordered by majestic pine trees under sapphire-blue skies...

Our mothers told us to eat our carrots for good reason. Research has proven that carrots provide high levels of Vitamin A, which contributes to healthy eyes and skin as well as improves resistance to infections. In addition, carrots are a rich source of beta-carotene which may reduce the risk of cataracts and cancer.

Schönegger Käse-Alm's summery, golden-yellow Carrot Cheese is the star of any display of fine cheeses. Carrot Cheese is produced from raw milk of cows that graze on meadows blanketed with wild flowers and Alpine herbs, and combined with pure carrot juice and fresh yogurt. Carrot Cheese is characterized by a strong aroma, incomparably fresh flavor and taste of good health.

Made from unpasteurized cow's milk.

Comments about Carrot Cheese:

Originally purchased to use with a spread of German wines and cheeses. Guests wouldn't touch it because of the potent smell. Flavor was abrasive. Tried other uses with the leftovers (aka: All of it) but was too strong to be paired with anything successfully, even in a dish.

Now that's some stinky cheese!

Comments about Carrot Cheese:

While I enjoyed the taste of this very strong cheese, it's aroma was so overpowering that I had to keep it seperated from other, more delicately flavored, cheeses as they picked up the smell, and some of the taste. I liked it on rye crackers with fruit and crumbles a little bit on a spinach/pear/ pecan salad and enjoyed it. Not sure I'd buy it again, but it was nice to try it.

Comments about Carrot Cheese:

I have never been a great fan of real stinky cheese, but this is a strong cheese with a smotth carrot flavor that has a GREAT taste! I have shared it with my co-workers and we all agree it was one of the best cheeses we have ever had.
