Kaltbach™ Le Gruyère® AOP matures peacefully under the watchful care of the Kaltbach Master Affineur in the cave. The mineral-rich air creates the perfect environment for transforming specially selected Le Gruyère wheels into wondrous depths of flavor. Each wheel is recognized instantly by the color of its rind – an unmistakable rustic brown patina – and its flavors of dried stone fruit, spice, black tea and hazelnuts with an earthy depth to captivate your taste buds. The texture is smooth with a slight flake and pronounced crystal crunch.
