Scharfe Maxx
With a heritage of making Gruyere, Emmentaler, and Appenzeller for centuries, it's easy to overlook all the new, exciting cheeses coming out of Switzerland. Scharfe Maxx, however, is just too bold for your taste buds to ignore. Made in the Swiss Canton of Thurgau by the family-run Studer farm, Scharfe Maxx is similar to Appenzeller, but with a bit more stinky funk and a creamier body. The extra pungency comes from repeated washings with a herb-infused saltwater brine. Scharfe Maxx's rich texture comes from the addition of cream to the thermalized milk. Aged for at least six months, Scharfe Maxx is firm, easily sliced, and a wonderful melting cheese. Use its sharp, spicy flavor to add extra heft to fondues, gratins, or grilled cheeses. Scharfe Maxx is also perfect to add to your next cheese board, served with crisp, minerally white wines, hard cider, or pints of IPA.
Made from thermalized (almost raw) cow's milk.
Photo depicts whole 13 lb. form of cheese.

Slightly sharp, on the stinky side
You can develop a taste for this one, once you get it past your nose, but by the time you've finished you'll decide you liked it.

If you love Tete de Moine you will love this chees
OK... I like cheese with a lot of flavor and this one has that in abundance. I love Tete de Moine cheese but the problem with that cheese is that I can only enjoy it when we have a party with plenty of people to share the large wheel. This cheese is very similar in flavor and has the advantage of being enjoyable in small pieces sliced off as a private indulgence.

Great cheese, great value
This is a very tasty semi-hard cheese. I add it to my scrambled eggs in the morning, and it was out of this world.
