Kaltbach Le Gruyère is an epic AOP Swiss cheese attentively made from silo-free raw cow’s milk in the Gruyère region of Switzerland. The fruity-tangy Gruyère is matured for a year, 3 months in the cheese dairy, and then transferred to the sandstone caves of Kaltbach for more than 300 days to develop the hallmark brown rind. This is a robust and deeply full flavoured cheese with evenly-balanced undertones of fruit and nuts and lingering after-taste without bitterness. It has a crumbly body with an occasional crystallization. This genuine classic tastes delicious with gougères, apple pie, risotto and shaved atop salads. Try pairing the cheese with wines such as Cabernet Franc, Late harvest Riesling, bock, stout, Belgian lambic, single malt scotch for a great combination.
Kaltbach Le Gruyère has won many international awards including bronze and gold at the 2014 World Cheese Awards.

Emmi Käse AG

One of the most known Swiss cheeses, Emmentaler cheese is famous for its open texture or 'eyes'. However, Kaltbach Emmentaler AOP is more than just the characteristic holes. It is about the hallmark black-brown patina that develops as the cheese matures for 3 months in the cheese dairy and for more than 300 days in the sandstone caves of Kaltbach. During this maturation process, white crystals and drops of water are formed from the cheese, known as "tears of joy". These "tears of joy" are a sign of quality in the cheese. The cave maturation results in a tangly nutty flavour and crumbly texture, typical of the fine Swiss classic from the caves. This genuine classic tastes delicious with dried apricots, caramelized onions, bacon, cheese plates, panini, casseroles, gratins. Try pairing the cheese with drinks such as Chardonnay, Zinfandel, Syrah, black tea for a great combination.Kaltbach Emmentaler has won many international awards including bronze and gold at the 2014 World Cheese Awards.
