Selected exclusively from three of the premier Le Gruyére AOP creameries in Switzerland for consistent flavor and quality. Le Gruyère has been crafted since the 12th century using the same recipe. Today more than 160 creameries in small villages throughout a designated area in Switzerland carry on this same tradition. Not only do farmers feed their cows a naturally sustainable diet of pasture grass in the summer and hay in the winter. Emmi cheesemakers also incorporate only the freshest milk supplied twice a day from nearby farms. Then craft exclusively in copper vats to impart a unique, complex character that connoisseurs crave.
