Vacherin

A semi-firm cheese with a washed rind, it has a sweet, fruity, lactic aroma, with a flavor of hazelnuts and salted butter.

Its name is a nod to the original Swiss Vacherin, but ours is made with pasteurized milk, giving it a milder taste.

This is one of the two cheeses we recommend for Swiss fondue; the other is Miranda.

Preservation
  • “A fine selection of cheeses”

    A nice selection of cheeses and the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about their products. I loved my cheese choices!

  • “This is THE cheese factory par exellence”

    We stopped to see what it was. What a surprise—it’s the largest variety of cheese I’ve ever seen. You can taste them. The prices are very affordable, if not better than at the grocery store. It’s a must-see. Definitely worth the detour.
