The Emmental cheese brand has been produced since 1750 in Switzerlands Emmen River Valley. Our tour group had the opportunity to visit this facility and a enjoy a freshly prepared lunch. We toured the original cheese making house and then saw the new modern facility, then lunch and thereafter walked the grounds for photo ops. if you have never seen a cheese producer … do it. Our visit to Emmental was part of a three stop bus tour and a most pleasant stop it was. The Swiss pastoral countryside is a delight not to be found elsewhere. The cheese making facility is modern and clean as is everything we see in Switzerland. Our Emmental tour guide spoke perfect English, had great personality and enthusiasm which made our visit most pleasant and educational. Lunch obviously included cheese and what an epicurean delight it was. A word about the Emmental brand name: Cheese produced by farmers in the Emmen River Valley is called Emmentaler. We came to find that anyone in any country can produce a Emmental style Swiss cheese and brand it a such. There is a caveat: the package must say where it was produced. This allows Swiss transplants in other countries the ability to produce and sell the Emmental Branded “Swiss cheese”. That said; We can purchase Emmentaler cheese at our local grocer … its imported from Bavaria and marked “Bavarian Emmentaler”, “produced in Germany” … You just may find this Swiss cheese delight in your grocers cheese display.
