Tête de Moine AOP - Swiss cheese

The famous Swiss Tête de Moine cheese is a semi-hard cheese in the shape of a cylinder. The most special feature of this aged cheese is the cut shape

This intensely aromatic cheese is the oldest of Swiss cheeses. Swiss Tete De Moine AOC is round like a monk's head (Tete de Moine means monk's head),

Tete de Moine, AOC

The literal translation of the French words Tete de Moine is Monk Head. Although this fine Swiss product was first created by monks, it is now produced by the lay community. Tete de Moine, made in the Swiss Alps near the town of Bellelay from rich unpasteurized cows' milk, is a sharp cheese with a full, nutty flavor. Its intense flavor is even more pronounced when compared to other cheeses from Switzerland, like Gruyere and Emmental.
