A premium specialty cheese with an incomparable flavour: fresh, tender, mild, made from natural raw milk from grass-fed cows – that’s our Swiss mountain cheese «Urschwyzer». Its balanced yet powerful flavour is reminiscent of the first blades of bold spring grass that break through the thawing snow.

Urschwyzer is inspired by the legend of William Tell. A freedom fighter, a little rough around the edges, but true to his roots: proud, honest and honorable. A true Swiss native, as fierce and uncompromising as he was gentle and compassionate. The tradition and integrity of Tell’s inspiring story are reflected in our Urschwyzer cheese, and give it a tender heart – enclosed in a protective outer rind.

The pure mountain milk comes from cows fed exclusively with grass and hay, and is processed into the finest cheese using time-honored craftsmanship, with no artificial additives. Our Urschwyzer is ripened to the peak of its flavour for at least six months using traditional maturing methods, resulting in an incomparably mild and delicate cheese which has already become a legend in its own right.
