Käseschatztruhe

Vienna


Fronted by a butter-yellow facade, this wonderful little shop crams in a huge selection of all-organic Austrian cheeses made by small artisan dairies around the country. Look out for Froihof's soft sheep cheeses from Styria, Ziegenliese's semihard goat's cheeses from Burgenland, and Plangger's Höhlentaler (similar to Emmental) from Tyrol.
