Alp Drackloch is a very rare, organic Swiss Alpage (mountain pasture) cheese made only in the summertime in the Muathatal region of Canton Schwyz, one of the oldest Cantons in Switzerland. Alp Drackloch is made by a fifth-generation cheesemaker from the phenomenal milk of the Simmenthal breed of cow. The wheels are formed in a copper caldron in a one-room cabin deep in the Alps. Alp Drackloch is bold, strong, and stalwart, as a great alpine cheese should be. Pair this cheese with an Alsatian white wine. |
