Almette Steinpilz Alpenfrischkäse

Almette is a renowned brand of whipped cream cheese that first entered the German market in 1989. It is characterized by its signature alpine-style wooden-look tub and its light, airy texture. The 'Steinpilz' variety shown in the image features porcini mushrooms, catering to savory flavor profiles popular in Central Europe.

The brand was originally developed by the Hochland group, a major family-owned dairy company based in Germany. While the brand evokes an alpine image, its primary production facilities for the German and European markets are located in Germany (specifically at the Hochland sites like Schongau). Today, Almette remains a core brand under Hochland SE, which has grown into one of the largest private cheese producers in Europe.
