The cheese selection at Steirereck offers a diverse range of flavors, from mild and creamy to sharp and pungent, depending on the specific cheeses chosen. Earthy, nutty, fruity, and spicy notes are all possible.
The flavors are primarily derived from the type of milk used (cow, goat, or sheep), the cheesemaking process, the length and method of aging, and the specific cultures employed. Austrian cheeses often showcase alpine herbs and grasses from the cows' diet. Homemade chutneys provide contrasting sweet, savory, and acidic elements, while artisanal breads offer textural contrast and complement the cheese flavors.

Tasting Order
Start with the milder cheeses and progress to the stronger, more pungent varieties. This prevents your palate from being overwhelmed by intense flavors too early.
Cheese and Wine Pairing
Consider pairing different cheeses with appropriate wines. Lighter cheeses often pair well with white wines, while bolder cheeses can stand up to red wines. A sommelier can offer expert guidance.
Chutney Usage
Use the homemade chutneys sparingly to complement the cheese, not to overpower it. Experiment with different chutney and cheese combinations to discover your preferences.
Bread Pairing
Each bread has unique flavor and texture, experiment with different cheese & bread pairings to enhance the tasting experience.
