Still made to the founder’s original recipe from 1927:

Bergader Edelpilz cheese has been produced to the same recipe with fresh milk from the alpine region in Bavaria since 1927. Famed for its premium quality far beyond the borders of Europe, this Bergader classic is enjoyed by cheese connoisseurs from Stockholm to Singapore and from Moscow to Sydney. Bergader Edelpilz is a tangy blue-veined cheese made from cow’s milk and fine blue mould (50 % fat in dry matter)

The classic blue cheese is available from the chilled section (100 g) and as a small wheel (1.2 kg), wheel (2.3 kg) and loaf (3.2 kg) from the cheese counter.

  • No additives or preservatives

  • Suggested wine pairing: robust red wines with low acid content, e.g. Trollinger or Dornfelder; also white wines with residual sweetness such as Silvaner Spätlese or Pinot Gris from the Elsass (Alsace) region
