The hallmark of a great Swiss aged cheese: a hard cheese made from raw cow's milk. Produced in Switzerland, Vieux Suisse is an exceptional hard cheese made exclusively from raw cow's milk of Swiss origin. Thanks to its extended aging period (between 200 and 390 days), it develops a dry, crumbly, and slightly sandy texture. Beneath its natural, deep brown rind, marked by the passage of time, its light yellow interior reveals aromatic, full-bodied aromas and a harmonious flavor of beautiful complexity. Available as a half-wheel weighing approximately 3.25 kg, this convenient size is ideal for making it easier for dairy shop owners, cheesemongers, and foodservice professionals to slice. Professional uses, preparation, and storage: ► Applications in dairy shops, restaurants, and catering: Presented sliced at the counter, Vieux Suisse appeals to lovers of distinctive cheeses. This half-wheel format allows for easy handling when assembling fine cheese platters, cutting into sticks or chunks for appetizers, and grating fresh over hot dishes (gratin, risotto, gourmet pasta). Its crumbly texture and rich aroma add structure and a full-bodied flavor to catering dishes. ► Preparation: Cut with a blade or a two-handled knife from the center to the rind. To reveal the full range of flavors in the cheese, it is recommended to remove it from the refrigerator 30 to 45 minutes before tasting or serving. Note: The rind is not edible. ► Storage: A fresh, aged cheese to be stored at a controlled temperature between +4°C and +8°C. Cover the cut surface with suitable plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out in the cold. Location in store: Atelier BOF
