The herdsmen of Pays-d'Enhaut know just what makes a good alpine cheese
- a good strong and slightly fruity smell, with a little touch of
hazelnut. Just like Etivaz - the little brother of the world-famous
Gruyere cheese.
This rarity from Canton Vaud is produced in a truly traditional manner
over an open fire on more than 130 alps between the glaciers of Les
Diablerets and the vineyards of Lake Geneva, and matured in a modern
cellar in the village of Etivaz, on the Mosses road. Take time to watch
the cheese being made on the alps - visitors are welcome but don't
expect to find out the recipe!
If you're looking for something a little bit different, then follow the
"ant nature trail"- up to the cheesemakers, starting at the top station
of the Chateau-d'Oex cable car.
