The natural pastures of this mountainous part of Bohemia provide the sheep with a rich diet that is revealed in the robust flavour of the hard pressed cheese.
It has the shape of an irregular ball with thin yellow to orange natural rind.
Abertam is a traditional Czech farmhouse hard cheese made from sheep milk.

Assez aromatisé, l'Abertam a la texture dure et ferme et prend la forme d'une boule irrégulière recouverte d'une fine croûte jaune-orange.
