Bold & peppery
Pepper
South Tyrolean mountain cheese · bold and peppery
Beneath the natural rind, a supple, pale paste, evenly studded with whole black peppercorns, no ground spice, only the occasional fine eye.
Pepper is the bold variety from the Wolfhof: the same mild paste made from our own hay milk from Ritten, studded with whole black peppercorns. Savoury and distinctly peppery, but still a mountain cheese first, not just a vehicle for spice.
- Our own milk from Ritten
- Shaped and pressed by hand
- Natural maturing on wood
- A family farm for generations
The variety
Taste & character
A mild semi-hard cheese made from our own hay milk, finished with whole peppercorns. Natural is the base: the peppercorns are worked into the curd and spread evenly through the wheel.
- Taste
- Mild and milky at first, then the clear, warm bite of black pepper with its essential-oil spiciness. Bold but rounded, the peppercorns bring aroma as much as heat.
- Texture
- Supple and firm to the cut, with a closed paste. The whole peppercorns are clearly visible and noticeable to the bite.
- What makes it special
- The classic pepper variety, bold enough for a hearty platter, and a fine match for dark bread, grapes and a full-bodied red wine.
