WOERLE Mondseer hay milk cheese

Today as then, an incomparable pleasure, our original Mondseer! The hearty, spicy Mondseer is probably the oldest and most traditional red smear cheese in Austria. Its origins date back to 1830.

It is still produced according to a traditional and carefully updated recipe from the Mondsee monastery and cultivated with red cultures several times a week. The daily fresh hay milk, which is so important for its aromatic taste, comes from cows that graze on lush meadows rich in herbs.
