One last memory to share with you all from our tri One last memory to share with you all from our trip last week, and quite possibly the most magical. No visit to Switzerland would be complete without stopping at an Alpage Gruyere chalet. Each year in Spring time, families ascend the Alps with their herds of cows, to continue on a special tradition. These families of cheese makers will spend the season producing Gruyère d’Alpage in the same ways it has been done for centuries. At these chalets, there is no access to electricity, which means everything must be done by hand. This includes preparing fire wood, caring for and milking cows, cheese making, and even house hold chores like laundry. Producing Gruyère d’Alpage isn’t a career, it’s a way of life. These special wheels of Gruyère are a time machine, capturing not only years of honed tradition but also a unique terroir. Every season, conditions and climate change and cheese makers take different steps during production to adjust with these changes. All of which help to craft individual profiles for each wheel, no two are quite alike. It was such a privilege to spend some time here, and an even bigger honor to be able to work with these producers. We’re already stocking wheels from the 2020 season currently, with new wheels from the 2021 season on their way. Reach out if you’re curious about reserving one of these wheels!
We’ve finally landed back home here in the State We’ve finally landed back home here in the States over the weekend, but we have so much more to share still! After our #jumi visit, we got to spend some time learning about all things #gruyère. We were graciously hosted by Mr. Guy Arpin, export manager to Fromage Gruyère S.A. Guy toured us around the caves of #fgsa teaching is all about their aging and selection process, and what it takes to receive the #1655 designation. We of course got to visit a Gruyère dairy as well, see first hand wheels being produced. And how else would you end a day in Gruyère without some #fondue. Swipe to the end to see some epic #cheesepulls. Thanks as always for the hospitality Guy!
Earlier this year, we began a new partnership with Earlier this year, we began a new partnership with an incredible Swiss producer, @jumi.cheese. For generations, this family run dairy produced some of the finest #emmentaler within the country. More recently, the younger generations have vastly expanded the #jumiverse, and have created numerous original recipe cheeses, rooted in centuries of traditions. Included with all this, and certainly not to be forgotten, is an endless line of playful, yet extremely well crafted Raclettes. We’re so grateful to be partnered with such an incredible producer, and even more humbled to call them friends. Our group got to spend some time here this week, learning more about all that goes on within this community @jumi.cheese has cultivated, which goes far beyond just cheese. Check out our stories for some of the highlights. • 📸: @cacioequeijo
