50% FDM, hard cheese made of cow’s milk.
The “Arzberger Ursteirer” is made in the dairy Leitner from cow’s milk exclusively of pasture grazing and hey fed cow. The cheese ripened in a silver mine for 5 months, is stored in 100 m deep in the mountain, embeded in millions of years old stones by constant 10 degrees, summer and winter. We wash the cheese with salt-water, turn the loafs and give it time for riping.
The covering is smooth with a natural rind, gets rustic patina from the high humidity level in the mine. The texture is bright yellow with soft and creamy homogenous structure. Thanks to optimal climate conditions during the ripening, this cheese is characterized by its uniquely strong taste and a rich aroma.
