Allgäu Emmental (or Allgäuer Emmentaler) is also referred to as Bavarian Swiss Cheese. One of the most famous German cheeses, it is not originally from Allgäu, but from the region of Emmental located in the Swiss canton of Bern. This cheese has been crafted there since the 18th century. In 1821, the "Swiss method" was brought to the Allgäu for the first time by Josef Aurel Stadler. Made from pure Bavarian milk, it is high in protein with a refined flavor. Our Bavarian Swiss has a rich, yellow color and large eyes. We recommend it sliced for sandwiches; cut in strips for Chef salads; or chunked for party platters. - Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Herbs and Flowers Cheese, Kuh Heublumenkäse in German, is a seductive blend of fragrant dried flowers, herbs, and pure organic Bavarian cow's milk. Besides coming from high quality milk, this German cheese takes on extra character through the selection of organic flowers, including safflower, blue mallow, peony and marigold, mingled with rosemary, oregano and a dash of unrefined rock salt. The cheesemakers coat the cheese with herbs and flowers and then seal it with transparent wax. Throughout the cheese´s 6-month ripening period, the combined essences seep into the cheese's paste, rendering an innovative semi-hard cheese bursting with aroma. The creamy cow's milk balances perfectly with the herb and flower flavors.
Two cheese lovers founded the company Alp's True Cheese out of the conviction that Alpine cheese is one of the purest and tastiest in the world. They offer cheeses produced in the German and Austrian Alps through the combined efforts of Alpine village farmers and highly skilled master cheesemakers. Their collection demonstrates respect for the pristine environment and for the main player in true cheese production, the dairy cow. In the Alps, brown cows are free to graze on verdant mountain pastures and valleys from summer to early autumn. Over the winter, they are housed in cozy mountain dairy huts.
The exquisite cheeses of Alps' True Cheese hail from a unique harmony between environment, animal and man, and from a spectacular region steeped in centuries-old culture and tradition. Among their cheeses are international award winners as well as all-natural types without chemicals, artificial flavoring, coloring, gelatine or preservatives. Some are derived solely from silage-free milk stemming from cows which are not fed any genetically manipulated cereals.

Although Germany is a country with a massive dairy industry, their cheeses remain relatively unknown to those of us outside its borders. One reason for this could be the majority of German cheeses are simply imitations of its neighbor's specialties. However, there are exceptions. Bruder Basil comes to us from Bavaria and is made in the tradition of Rauchkäse, a smoked cheese typical of the region. Originally, Basils were manufactured by Trappist Monks in the Abbey of Rotthalmunster. In 1902, Basil Weixler founded the Bergader Private Cheese Dairy. Today, Bergader still works in accordance with this old tradition of craftmanship. It is still smoked over selected beech wood, which gives it its special flavor. This semi-soft cows milk cheese has a darker, natural rind and a rich, creamy texture. With its smoky flavor, Bruder Basil is ideal for grilled sandwiches; as an alternative to raclette and gratins; and perfect for snacking with your favorite dark German beer or dry white wine.- Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Named after a town in East Prussia, Tilsit was invented by homesick Dutch immigrants trying to recreate Gouda. Due to various factors, they were unable to recreate their beloved cheese. What they did create was a brand new cheese they named Tilsit. Tilsit is made from partially skimmed pasteurized cow's milk and is semi-firm with a springy texture, dotted with irregularly spaced tiny holes. It was traditionally made in large wheels, but is now made in loaf form, making it easier to slice (the way it is generally eaten). The rind is washed and brushed regularly for the first two months of aging to form an outer crust that keeps its supple, smooth interior from drying out. Tilsit has a mildly pungent aroma and a tangy taste that is delicate and fruity with spicy undertones. This German favorite is excellent on sandwiches, cold or grilled. It is also great on chicken or burgers, and also can be enjoyed melted over potatoes.- Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Hirtenkäse is a traditionally handmade product of the Allgäu mountain region in the south of Germany. This majestic cheese is rustic, savory and firm textured. It is an authentic mountain cheese with a rugged, earthy aroma.
The rich cow's milk for Hirtenkäse comes from mountain farmers. Their cows graze in elevations of at least 2600 feet. The farmers have only about 12 to 15 cows per farm, and each one is well cared for. These pampered cows enjoy the fragrant grasses on alpine meadows in the summer and spend the winters in their cozy barn, eating aromatic hay. This humane, loving treatment results in wonderful, rich milk that makes a spectacular cheese. In mid-September there is a big festival in the Allgäu called the "Viehscheid". A "lead cow" is decorated with flowers and all the region's cows are herded down from the mountains to their barns. That's where the name Hirtenkäse comes from. It is German for "cow shepherd's cheese".
Hirtenkäse won two gold medals at the World Cheese Awards in London, England in 2005. - Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Schoenegger Kaese-Alm has created a classic Bavarian cheese. They use fresh, unpasteurized milk from cows raised on mountain farms in protected regions of Europe where they are fed on fresh grass and hay. They were granted a special license from Prince Luitpold of Bavaria (great grandson of the last King of Bavaria, Ludwig II), to make Konig Ludwig Bierkase. König Ludwig Dunkel is a bottom-fermentation dark specialty beer, produced in accordance with traditional Bavarian brewing methods. This special beer is made in one of the last castle breweries in the heart of Bavaria, south of Munich in Kaltenberg Castle.
König Ludwig Bierkäse is a delicate yellow, semi-hard cheese with small holes ripened in fine King Ludwig dark beer to give it its hearty taste. This Dark Beer Cheese melts well for cooking, but is just terrific on its own or served with hearty German bread and a good beer.- Made from unpasteurized cow's milk.

From the heart of Bavaria comes another rich and delicious cheese from King Ludwig. This time, we're treated not to a solid block of cheese, but a creamy, full-bodied beer-cheese spread. This isn't your everyday spread, however, as this combines the flavor of dark König Ludwig Dunkel beer with the vibrancy of blended Bavarian cheese. Open up a Spaten or a Duvel, get some nice dark bread or homemade pretzels, and relax! |
