The rich history of real Emmentaler
Emmentaler originally comes from the valley of the Emme river in the Swiss canton of Bern. It is one of the oldest and most impressive cheeses in the world; a whole cheese wheel can weigh up to 100 kilos! The original Swiss Emmentaler is still traditionally made from fresh, unpasteurized cow's milk. This raw milk comes from cows that graze in the meadows or in the mountains and exclusively eat fresh grass or hay. This diet and the raw milk preparation give the cheese its rich, complex and unmistakably nutty aromas. It is therefore no surprise that this top cheese was awarded silver by the international expert jury of the World Cheese Awards 2025-26.
The most recognizable thing about this cheese is of course the holes. These cherry- to walnut-sized holes arise naturally in the ripening cellars because bacteria produce carbon dioxide gas that cannot escape. Besides the delicious taste to eat purely as a snack, Emmentaler is the absolute star player in warm dishes. It melts fantastically and creates beautiful strings, making it the indispensable ingredient for a traditional, heartwarming Swiss cheese fondue.
