Le Gruyere AOC
Hard Swiss cheese with a washed rind made from raw milk. At least 400 litres of fresh raw milk are required to produce a 35 kg wheel of cheese. Its origin goes back at least to the year 1115, in the nearby area of the village of Gruyère and the district where its name comes from, in the heart of the Fribourg canton. Made exclusively from premium quality raw milk, produced by cows fed on 100% natural feed, especially from the pastures in summer and hay in winter. This Gruyere has a beautiful rind marked by time, somewhat hollowed with a gradually darker brown colour the more it ripens.
- Unpasteurised Cow's Milk

We recommend the following quantities per person:
For an after dinner cheese board, 30g to 50g per cheese per person is generally enough and should not leave you with much leftover. If you are planning to have a big table and / or want some cheese to be carried over a few days ,we recommend 60 to 80g per cheese per person.
The number of cheeses is up too you (i say the more the better!) but to achieve a good selection from textures, Strenghs & different milks, 4 to 6 cheeses are recommended.
The average Cheese Weight we recommend:
2 to 4 Guests: 125 to 150g per cheese
