Steffen Schultze learned his trade in the Alps, you can taste it. The cheeses from Inselkäserei Usedom are specialties based on Swiss recipes. As a boy, the native of the Black Forest loved to spend the summers with the cows and make cheese. As a result, he later trained as a cheese maker in Switzerland and gained experience in regions that are known for their cheese traditions.

The island cheese dairy is a bit out of the way, but easily accessible on the Kleiner Haff, the western part of the Szczecin Lagoon, around five kilometers from the town of Usedom. If you go down from the cheese dairy to the water, you can look over the lagoon to Ückermünde. There is a lot of sun, wind and waves here. Steffen Schultze often goes towards the lagoon, because there is the paddock of his horses, which he loves dearly.

In the guest room of the old barn, which the cheesemaker has been expanding since 2001, I am not given anything, nothing is shoved into your mouth for a taste. A ritual that you cannot escape from. First the young cheeses are tried, then the more mature, stronger variants, piece by piece, on and on. A new experience and challenge for many.

The heart of the courtyard is the show dairy, which is slightly elevated behind a glass wall and gives you a complete view of the work of cheese-making. The mighty copper kettle is impressive. An embossing on the edge provides information: The kettle dates from 1930 and found its way to the lagoon from Switzerland.

The kettle holds 1,400 liters of milk, which is then used to make large, heavy wheels of cheese - "burned", as they say, over a wood fire. Inselkäsers use organic raw milk from the SOS village community of Grimmen-Hohenwieden.

The small cheese dairy is a one-of-a-kind unique on Usedom. Mr. Schultze has learned the profession of cheese maker in Switzerland!

I am cheese lover but even his 6 month old "mild" variant is a bit too strong for me. The older ones were not my thing.

But he also has originals from Switzerland, e.g. Appenzeller. Delicious. ☺️

Very tasty cheese from Steffen Schultze, of course you can taste it first. On Saturdays you can be present at the production and learn all sorts of interesting facts about the topic. There are games for children and a coffee or wine will be served to adults.

The place would have even more potential... but there is definitely more going on in the summer.
