Where it comes from.
Regional products from Austria
The regional nature of the food at our sustainable hotel in Austria supports local agriculture and reduces transport emissions and packaging waste. Shopping regionally is a contribution towards our local food culture which we do not want to do without, and has a positive effect on our health due to the freshness of our products.
We present to you our regional partners:
Milk products
Our milk products stem from “Tirol Milch” and “Salzburg Milch”. We receive regional cheese from the agriculture school in Rotholz. Also the "Milchbuben" from the Rehaberhof farm in the Brixental provide us with regional organic mozzarella and organic camembert. Most cheeses come from Tirol Milch, the organic dairy Walchsee and the organic alpine dairy Plangger in Niederndorf. Sheep's whey and other sheep's milk products come from the lake farm Eisl at lake Wolfgangsee. Our guests especially value the Ackernalm cheese and the cheese from the Höhlenstein as well as the "Schottenkäse" from the Pinzgau.
Meat
Our regional meat mainly comes from Tyrol. The distribution is done by Bewusst Tirol: The Tyrolean alpine beef, the Tyrolean "Kitzei" (kid) or the Tyrolean "Jahrling" (heifer) are especially important to us. We connect the Tyrolean milk veal or the Tyrolean mountain lamb with Tyrol and would never want to miss it in our kitchen. The xobeef from Peuerbach is regional to us. The organic alpine chicken by Bio am Berg brings joy to our kitchen.
Boar, venison, chamois, wild duck and lamb come exclusively from Austria.
Bread & rolls
Our daily bread is provided by the neighbouring Bayrischzell. Our organic baker Butz not only provides us with a regional product but also with 100% organic bread.
Fish
Trout, brown trout, salmon trout, char, sturgeon and Tyrolean alpine shrimps come exclusively from Austria. It is not always easy to do completely without sea fish but it is our way towards regionality and our native country.
Vegetables & fruits
Whenever we can we buy mushrooms, cranberries or wild strawberries directly from local gatherers. Vegetables from Tyrol (TLP, Tyrolean national products) are important to us. Dried fruit is bought from the South Tyrolean organic manufacturer Monthea and the Vorarlberg producer Schobel Höchstgenuss. We especially love the plums from Stanz and the apples by Inntal Obst. The yams do not come from Peru but from Styria. Especially interesting are the Tyrolean organic mushrooms from Thaur: oyster mushrooms, shiitake, king oyster mushrooms and mushrooms come directly from there. There are already lemons from Carinthia, physalis from Loosdorf and figs from Vienna, but the amount does not last for the whole season at the moment.
Muesli & dried fruits
Our mueslis, dried fruits or other cereals are purchased from the company Verival Vita + Naturprodukte in Langkampfen behind the Pendling as well as from the company Biologon in Itter from the other side of the Wilder Kaiser Mountains - both of them certified organic suppliers.
Coffee
Our coffee comes from Dallmayr and is, with the exception of single special coffees, a Fairtrade organic certified quality product.
Grains
We purchase our grains, such as einkorn, emmer or black oats, flaxseed and black beluga lentils from an organic farm in the neighbouring Chiemgau, the Chiemgau.Korn. The flour used in our kitchen comes from the Spielberger Mühle from Brackenheim in Germany, a Demeter-certified mill which produces organic flour. The Tyrolean Wieshofermühle with organic assortment excites us but the logistics are not decided yet. The organic flours by Fandler are regional and high-quality. The poppyseed comes from Upper Austria. The rice comes partly from Lower Austria and Styria.
Schnapps
We purchase our schnapps from Vorderthiersee and are also happy to offer schnapps from the Michelehof in Vorarlberg and from the Herzog distillery in Salzburg. Our fine distillery Rochelt or the Schnapsmanufaktur Gölles must not be missing on our digestives menu. Overall we look for interesting regional products such as the Rauchkogel Whiskey from East Tyrol or other specialties for our guests.
Beer
Our beer producer is the Tyrolean private brewery Zillertal Bier from Zell am Ziller.
Mineral water
Our mineral water comes from the company MONTES in Brixlegg. Protected against pollutions, the magnesium-rich MONTES water is obtained from the foot of the Kitzbühel Alps near Thiersee.
Wine, aperitifs & digestifs
In addition to Tyrolean winemakers - the winery Flür from Tarrenz as well as the winery Zoller-Saumwald from Haiming - we offer a 100% Austrian wine menu.
We consciously offer regional aperitifs such as Verjus or apple cidre. The ladies like the cornelian cherry liqueur by Aunt Kathi from Thiersee. Regional gins such as the mountain gin from Thiersee is liked by all gin lovers. Regional whiskeys and rum types such as the Crownhill products from Schwoich or the Slyrs from the Bavarian Schliersee round off our regional drink offer. And do you know the Austrian sake? All guests are surprised by it.
