*'''Description'''

Milk: Cows’, to which a small amount of goats’ [[milk]] is added

Shape and weight: Cylinder with a manufacturing weight of 250 g or halved cylinder

Texture: close texture with few holes

Fat content: at least 30% by weight in the dry matter

*'''Geography'''

Under the Cheese Order as amended on 20 December 1993, rural districts of Altenburg, Schmölln, Gera, Zeitz, Geithain, Grimma, Würzen, and Borna and the town of Gera; after reorganization and renaming as a result of administrative reforms in the Länder of Thuringia, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt, the rural districts of Altenburger Land, Greiz and Muldentalkreis, parts of the districts of Leipziger Land and Burgenlandkreis. The [[milk]] derives its character from the nature of the forage area, a spread-out hilly agricultural landscape with clover-rich pasture. Goat-keeping has traditionally been a prominent feature of the region.

*'''History'''

Traditional product from the Saxony/Thuringia border area. Originally made as unpasteurised [[milk]] [[cheese]] on producers' holdings. Addition of the relatively small proportion of goat's milk has its origin in the fact that in the past goats’ [[milk]] was consumed directly

*'''Production'''

Made exclusively from cheese milk produced in the area of manufacture and containing at least 15% goats’ [[milk]]; [[caraway]] may be added.
