Stärnächäs

Alpine excellence between Gruyère and Appenzeller. Smooth, subtle, irresistible.

Produced at the foot of the Säntis mountain near Appenzell, Stärnächäs delivers a flavour experience that nestles perfectly between a Gruyère and an Appenzeller. Aged for eight months, its smooth, slightly supple texture is interrupted only by the occasional crystal or small eye, while its taste balances gentle sweetness with a savoury depth that makes it dangerously moreish.

Less intense than an aged Gruyère, but full of character, it’s a cheese that invites nibble after nibble. A true testament to Swiss cheesemaking heritage.

Awarded Supreme Champion at the International Cheese Awards in Nantwich, 2016.
