Altenburger Ziegenkäse

This soft cheese is produced between Saxony and Thuringia in Germany. Although the name suggests differently, Altenburger Ziegenkäse is not a pure goat's cheese – it is made with cow's milk and a small amount of goat's milk flavored with caraway. The cheese is coated with white mold and resembles Camembert.

It has a relatively mild taste, becoming more aromatic and piquant as it matures. For a hearty snack, Altenburger Ziegenkäse is typically served on bread with pickled vegetables.
