Description

Most people assume that the only real Emmental (more commonly referred to as "Swiss Cheese") comes from Switzerland. However, Entremont's French Emmental proves to be every bit as worthy of the name. It comes from the heart of the French Alps near the chic ski resort of Chamonix. The freshest water in the world rushes down this region's high mountains, through deep valleys and abundant rivers and feeds the French dairy farms that produce Emmental's milk. Entremont's Emmental is ripened to perfection in the traditional 180 pound wheels. They are turned weekly in the ripening chambers for a minimum of two months. It has a somewhat sweet, buttery taste that is slightly reminiscent of fresh nuts and has many round walnut-sized holes evenly distributed throughout. A result of a complex and difficult cheesemaking process.


Entremont, the flagship brand of Sodiaal, crafts cheeses with 100% French milk from our cooperative dairy farms. Meaning "between mountains," Entremont started in 1948 when the 3 Entremont brothers, François, Marius and Edouard, began maturing and selling Emmental in Annecy, Savoie, in the heart of the French Alps.
