We will be offering four outstanding seasonal Alpage cheeses through an abbreviated version of Caroline Hostettler’s Adopt-an-Alp program. Every year, she sources wheels from families who spend their summers in the Swiss Alps making cheese. The program allows retailers to support a specific cheesemaker by buying their cheese and signals to customers that they value traditional cheesemaking and transhumance. It also gives customers an unbelievable opportunity to try cheeses that rarely leave the Alp, let alone the continent. Here are the cheeses we are bringing in this year:
Alp Maran – Raclette Round 2023
Alp Maran – Raclette Square 2023
Alp Heuboden – Glarner Alpkäse AOP 2022
Alp Gantrischli – Vacherin Fribourgeois AOP 2023
If you’re intrigued, we recommend you contact one of our sales reps now. Quantities are very limited and are selling quickly. The shipment arrives on 11/3.
