Limburger kass

Limburger Kass is a semi-soft, smear-ripened cheese made from pasteurized cow's milk. It is known for its strong aroma, which can be quite pungent as it ripens. Despite its smell, the flavor is often mild and creamy with a savory, slightly tangy taste. The cheese originates from Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands, where it is traditionally paired with rye bread and onions. The texture is smooth and creamy, becoming softer as it ages. Limburger Kass is often used in sandwiches or served with beer, complementing its bold aroma with a mellow, rich flavor.
