by Kaserei Gunzesreid. Product of Gunzesreid, Germany. Very mild, brick-like cheese from Bavarian Alps in Germany. This is a raw cow’s milk cheese made by Bavaria’s oldest cooperat ive. Locally, it is known as a brick of gold for its shape and orange washed-rind. The cheese has a bit of acidity that cuts the rich creamy texture and the barnyardy flavor is balanced with certain milky sweetness. Traditionally paired with dark bread and onions but it adds an extraordinary experience to the best cheese plate. Dark beers would be a natural but it will also work nicely with Riesling and a light Pinot Noir. Ingredients: raw cow's milk, salt, cultures, rennet. CONTAINS: MILK Show more
