EC approves one new Protected Geographical Indication: Weißlacker/Allgäuer Weißlacker'
The Commission has approved the addition of two new products to the register of Protected Geographical Indications (PGIs) and Protected Designation of Origin (PDOs).

These are, for Germany, 'Weißlacker/Allgäuer Weißlacker' (PDO), a rindless, semi-soft cheese produced in both the region of Swabia and the rural districts of Ravensburg and Bodenseekreis located in Baden-Württemberg; and for Lithuania, 'Liliputas' (PGI), a cylindrical semi-hard cheese handmade in the village of Belvederis. These two denominations will be added to the list of over 1,200 products already protected. More information: webpages on quality products and DOOR database of protected products.
