Switzerland

Switzerland’s terrain draws from two extremes, mountain peaks and valley streams. The regional cheeses capture this contrast remarkably well. Working with Caseus Montanus - the International Association for the Safeguarding of Mountain Cheeses - Artisanal has assembled a collection of favorites and rare Swiss treasures. We trust that you will find our selection of artisan cheeses to reflect the region perfectly.
