    40 min

    Le Gruyère AOP is a cheese with a long tradition and its making has been handed down over many generations of cheesemakers both in the alpine and village cheese dairies.

    Hearing – the staircase that leads to the exhibition reverberates with the sounds of Gruyère AOP : bells, bellowing, the streams that rush down the mountain-side, a journey inside a drop of milk…
