Gruyere, the most popular of the Swiss hard cheeses, needs no introduction. Made from part-skim cow`s milk and lovingly cave aged, once this classic cheese with its tangy taste and exquisite, crumbly texture has been tasted, it is never forgotten
Named after the yellow Alpine flowers growing in the Entlebuch, where Silvio Schopfer sources fresh raw milk from cows grazing on high Alpine meadow flowers, Rockflower is the newest addition to Gourmino’s smaller Alpine specialty cheeses. This cheese is semi firm but more pliable than most Alpine cheeses aged as long, and the flavor is strongly umami, balanced by notes of pine nut and white flowers
Made by 3 time World Cheese champion Michael Spycher from raw, grassfed milk. The dense, smooth, slightly crystalline paste tastes of chestnuts, stone fruit and broth and has a slightly sweet vanilla end note. Italco is offering this cheese in 2/9 lb wedges
Bleu de Combremont is made from cow’s milk that meets the requirements for Gruyère quality but is treated differently. Due to the blue mold cultures, the cheeses need to be taken directly from the salt brine to a cellar nearby, where they are ripened and maintained in compliance with strict climatic and microflora parameters. There the wonderful taste unfolds, and its one-of-a-kind appearance develops. Its special shape has already granted it the nickname “cinder block blue”.
Bleu de Combremont is creamy-buttery and balanced, tastes slightly peppery with hints of mushrooms and a sweet umami aromatic finish. Thanks to its creamy consistency, our bleu is spreadable and therefore tastes particularly good with a fruit bread or crackers. We recommend dried fruit or honey with a sweet white wine pairing.
Since 1885, Ammerland has maintained its reputation as one of Germanys largest independent dairies while creating the high quality products that the Ammerlander region is renowned for. Their delicious Swiss cheese, with the classic, distinctive nutty flavor and smooth texture comes alive in these conveniently shaped loaves. Made with creamy cow’s milk and aged in an extremely controlled environment, Ammerland Swiss cheese retains the consistently delectable taste of Swiss cheese.
Emmenthal (also called Swiss Cheese) is known for its grand size and its handmade quality. The Emmenthal cheese-making process is an old tradition, using pure cow`s milk and a maturation period of at least four months. This process allows the rind to develop in an entirely natural manner, enclosing an ivory-colored, mild, slightly nutty-tasting cheese with cherry- sized holes. Emmenthal from Switzerland is a delicacy on every cheese platter, a popular dessert cheese, and is a perfect melting cheese for warm dishes.
