Category: cheese specialitties
The distinctive Ländle Klostertaler offers the highest cheese enjoyment for cheese lovers. The Klostertal is an alpine valley in Vorarlberg and stretches from Bludenz, around 30 km long, to the Arlberg. The Ländle Klostertaler is made from the best fresh Alpine milk and is matured and cared for in a traditional and artisanal way. During its maturation period of at least 10 months in the natural cellar, it develops its elegant spiciness. The cheese dough is compact, smooth and silky and is loosened up by crystalline inclusions. The scent of forest honey, malt, dried fruit and some citrus fruits appears charming and elegant.
