Aged for at least 21 days, Munster Fischer develops a soft, supple interior beneath its signature sticky, orange-hued rind, achieved through regular brine washing. This process enhances its pungent aroma and deep umami notes, while the flavour remains buttery, earthy, and slightly tangy, with hints of woodsmoke, wildflowers, and Alpine pastures. As it matures, its aromatic intensity deepens, making it a favourite for those who enjoy bold, characterful cheeses.
A staple of Alsatian cuisine, Munster Fischer is traditionally paired with boiled potatoes, cumin seeds, and rustic country bread. It pairs beautifully with Alsace Riesling, Gewürztraminer, or a robust farmhouse ale, which complements its creamy texture and rich depth of flavour.
