Cheese-makers comment’s
Overberg was jointly awarded the best new cheese in the world at the World Cheese Awards in 2015-16. Modelled on the Old Amsterdamer, and inspired by our region, Klein River Overberg defines artisanal and hand-made!
Produced by hand in our tiny 1300 L vat which only yields 130 kg of cheese. In the curd cutting process, we use a special cheese knife that we have had for more than 20 years. Overberg also undergoes a unique pressing process to drain moisture out.
Curd-washed to ensure creaminess, Overberg is made in small 4 kg and larger 15 kg heads. The fermentation uses the well-known probiotic culture, Lactobacillus acidophilus.
Tip for chefs: Klein River Overberg is wonderful ‘raw’ and doesn’t cook very well.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”2496″ img_size=”large” alignment=”right”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][ultimate_icon_list icon_size=”80″ icon_margin=”10″][ultimate_icon_list_item icon_type=”custom” icon_img=”id^182|url^https://kleinrivercheese.co.za/2017/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/restaurant-cutlery-circular-symbol-of-a-spoon-and-a-fork-in-a-circle_318-61086.jpg|caption^null|alt^null|title^restaurant-cutlery-circular-symbol-of-a-spoon-and-a-fork-in-a-circle_318-61086|description^null”]
