Animal farm visit and cheese making workshop at the foot of Vértes mountain

We will visit an animal farm at the foot of Vértes near Csákberény, about an hour from Budapest. The owners mainly deal with keeping Hungarian traditional cows and processing dairy products. They have a wide selection of cheese, natural, with garlic, smoked and matured as well. The main specialty is a type of fresh, curd cheese, which is made in various flavors.

The high quality of milk is due to three factors:

Breed: These tpye of Hungarian cows give only 10 liters of milk a day, compared to 20-25 liters of large breeds, so the milk is more concentrated.

Housing: Due to the natural housing, the animals have an extremely long life span. They walk 4-5 km a day, and leg and udder diseases are unknown at the ranch.

Feeding: As the cows graze on the meadows of the Vértes Protected Area, the natural vitamin and mineral content of the pasture is incorporated into the milk. During winter time the livestock feeds on the fodder that comes from these pastures.

In addition, ham, bacon, salami, sausage, liver sausage, black pudding, homemade frankfurters and other delicacies are prepared on the farm.
