Bergader cheese

Bergader is a renowned German cheese producer specializing in high-quality dairy products. Founded in 1902 by Basil Weixler in the Bavarian town of Waging am See, the company remains a family-owned enterprise. It is particularly famous for its pioneering blue mold cheeses, such as the Bergader Edelpilz and Bavaria blu.

All Bergader products are manufactured in Germany, primarily at their production facilities in Waging am See and Bad Aibling. The brand emphasizes its regional roots by sourcing milk from local mountain farmers (Bergbauern) in the Alpine region, ensuring traditional craftsmanship and high quality standards. As of 2026, the company continues to be owned and managed by the descendants of the founder, maintaining its status as an independent private dairy.
