Zirben Königin
Savoury, woody, herbaceous
This cheese celebrates pine, or as it is also known ‘The Queen of the Alps’. These trees only grow at high altitude, making them the perfect flavour for a mountain cheese. Refreshing, brothy and unique: you will never forget the taste of Zirben Königin.
A creamy cheese with fresh herbaceous tones, hits of pine blossom and deep savoury, woody notes. An even textured, consistent and slightly open ivory coloured cheese with small green
pine blossom pieces.
