Gruyère - Switzerland's Finest

Where do you find the best Gruyère cheese? In Switzerland, of course – more precisely in Gruyère. A small medieval village amidst the Swiss mountains – for cheese lovers it’s paradise on earth. This small cobblestone village is all about cheese. And no matter which of the small original restaurants you pick (Le Chalet des Gruyères is a good choice), you’ll get the best cheese platter you’ve ever had.

Gruyère cheese is famous for its nutty aromatic taste you may already have experienced if you love cheese. Eating it in the region where it is originating from, surrounded by the Swiss Alps will turn this simple meal into an once-in-a-lifetime experience. Of course, other Swiss cheese dishes, such as the traditional cheese fondue or cheese raclette, are offered, too. But as tempting as it is to indulge in all the cheese dishes, make sure to leave room for dessert!



The other incredible treat Gruyère has to offer is Créme de Gruyère. An ultra rich double cream that needs no whipping and is served out of a wooden vat over fresh berries. There is nothing better in the world. Certainly a culinary experience you will never forget!! And to make up for all the calories you’ll take away from Gruyère you can start your next hike right from the village.

Hope to see you in Switzerland!
