Kaltbach Alpine Creamy - Cave-Aged Swiss Cheese
A semi-soft Swiss cheese made with an extra portion of cream, which gives it a wonderfully smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. It’s matured in the natural sandstone caves of Kaltbach, where it develops a dark brown natural rind and a rich, gently tangy flavour. Creamy, full of character and very hard to stop eating.
Tasting notes
Particularly creamy and melt-in-the-mouth, with a tangy, mature aroma from the caves.

We recommend the following quantities per person:
For an after dinner cheese board, 30g to 50g per cheese per person is generally enough and should not leave you with much leftover. If you are planning to have a big table and / or want some cheese to be carried over a few days ,we recommend 60 to 80g per cheese per person.
The number of cheeses is up too you (i say the more the better!) but to achieve a good selection from textures, Strenghs & different milks, 4 to 6 cheeses are recommended.
