Appenzeller Extra Cheese

The Facts:

Country: Switzerland
Milk Type: Unpasteurized Cow
Age: 6 Months 

Tasting Notes:

Appenzeller Extra Cheese is aged longer than Appenzeller Classic, but is still carefully made the same way. It is produced from the highest quality Dutch milk from local alpine cows grazing on a diet of grasses, herbs, and flowers.

The cheese is then washed in a brine of herbs, wine, cider, and blossoms. This extra aged version has a fuller, more complex flavour with notes of toasted nuts, herbal spice, clover, and black tea.

Pair with Pinot Noir, Riesling, hard cider.

Our cheese mongers hand cut every cheese to order. We will always try to cut the exact weight ordered, however your piece might be slightly over or under the amount listed. But please know that we cut it freshly and specifically for you.

If you order several cheeses, we will usually make up for shortcomings on weight, if any, on the other cheeses ordered.

All cheeses are wrapped in special cheese paper and sealed to preserve freshness during transit.

Every order includes all the necessary thermal packaging and ice packs required for current weather conditions. Our main focus is getting the freshest product delivered to your door.
