The secret behind the distinct flavour of our le Gruyère AOP Cave-Aged cheese lies in the exceptional ripening environment: a sandstone cave carved deep into the mountainside in Ursy, a small Swiss village. It is here that the cheeses are salted and aged at length, resulting in a premium quality gourmet product.
This outstanding cheese is matured in our natural cave for a minimum period of 11 months. The result is a deliciously full-bodied cheese distinguished from its milder versions by a distinctive crystalline crunch, a hard crumbly and grainy paste and melting grains.
