Hornbacher - Mountain Dairy Fritzenhaus *Third of a Pound*

Hornbacher comes from Mountain Dairy Fritzenhaus in Switzerland, where local farmers deliver milk twice a day from the hills around the dairy. It is a rich, nutty alpine cheese with a bit of funk, and it tastes like the pastures it came from.

Why you'll love it

  • Twice daily milk — local farmers deliver fresh milk twice a day, which is the basis for a cheese like this.
  • Summer grazing — the cows graze the lush meadows all summer and eat fine hay through the winter.
  • Rich and nutty — a rich, nutty alpine flavor with well balanced funk.
  • Long ripening — the quality of the milk is what allows a natural, long ripening.
  • Raw cow's milk — unpasteurized, from Switzerland, affinage by Gourmino Selections.

How to enjoy Serve it with a hearty red and a chunk of bread, or melt it over potatoes with onions and plenty of black pepper.

An alpine cheese with the barnyard edge that makes alpine cheese worth eating.
