The Buttermilk "Alm"

An "Alm" is an outpost of a farm, high up in the still lush alpine meadows, where the valley farmer takes his cattle during the summer month. There they produce the best milk this side of culinary heaven. This particular "alm" runs a very nice restaurant and produces, you guessed it, Buttermilk. Absolutely delicious ( and only 1% fat )






Even the barn windows boast lovely flowers and, in the window, the reflection of the hills beyond.










The view from the "Buttermilkalm" to the surrounding Alps.

and down, to the village in the valley....
