Toggenburger Ziege is a distinctive and flavorful cheese produced by Güntensperger Käse in the Toggenburg region of Switzerland. This cheese is made from goat's milk, reflecting the rich traditions of Swiss cheesemaking while showcasing the unique flavors of the local environment.


Toggenburger Ziege is a semi-hard cheese with a creamy, smooth texture. It has a rich, slightly tangy flavor that is characteristic of goat’s milk cheeses, but it is well-balanced with a mild nutty taste. The cheese has subtle earthy undertones, which develop as it matures, offering a more complex flavor profile over time.


Its smooth and firm texture makes it ideal for slicing, grating, or enjoying on its own.
