This quarter wheel, weighing 17 pounds, invites you to savor its exquisite character, whether enjoyed on a sophisticated cheese board or as a luxurious addition to a gourmet dish.

To elevate your experience, consider pairing this Gruyere with toasted pecans, a fig or pear mostarda, and a touch of cherry jam. Rustic bread and artisanal cured meats or olives enhance its complex flavors, while a glass of Cabernet Franc or Single Malt Scotch will amplify the sensory journey. Indulge in the elegance of Emmi Cave Aged Gruyere, where every bite transports you to the serene Alps, embodying the essence of Swiss tradition and mastery.
