Cheese Maturing: The Art of Refinement

Discover how time, cheese-making culture and traditional craftsmanship combine to create the distinctive flavours of our cheese specialities.

From the very first cheese to a masterful variety of cheeses

Cheese is one of humanity’s oldest and most popular foods. Whilst some varieties, such as fresh mozzarella or ricotta, are enjoyed straight away, others require time, care and the right climate. It is only through a controlled maturing process that hard and semi-hard cheeses develop their full-bodied character, fine texture and distinctive flavour. It is the combination of traditional craftsmanship in Eastern Bavaria, precise temperature control and experience that transforms high-quality milk into first-class GOLDSTEIG cheese.
