Many years ago, the villages of the Swiss Alps would frequently be cut off in the wintertime due to heavy snowfalls. The best way to preserve milk's remarkable nutrient value was to make cheese. After salting, this cheese was kept to mature in rocky mountain caves, where it was regularly rubbed with salt, turned over and tasted. Inspired by those traditional roots, today Jean-Louis offers this cheese with its robust and authentic taste reminiscent of the Swiss mountain pastures.
Le Tonneau is a new cheese from Switzerland ripened for four months. Its rind is a natural dark color, with grooves that resemble a barrel. Along with the character of a large cheese, Le Tonneau has a unique taste with a full, fruity flavor. This fresh, partially skimmed cow's milk cheese has a novel consistency and a softness, creaminess, and delicacy that is exceptional.
