Gruyère Moléson is handmade at a single-family cheese dairy, and with every bite, you can taste the artistry and dedication to craft. It matures for over two years, the perfect amount of time to develop a balanced brothy umami and caramel flavor and a dense, crystalline texture. The wheels we get are part of a hand-selected, extra-aged batch—there are only 50 wheels released worldwide every year. The flavor is so nuanced and layered that it’s well worth eating on its own. Or pair with slices of Prosciutto Cotto and a few spears of pickled asparagus.

"This is such incredible Gruyère. Deep and intense and brothy, with tyrosine crystals like savory pop rocks. I serve it simply with squares of dark chocolate to let the artistry shine."

The tradition of raw cow’s milk Gruyère dates back to the 13th century.
The Alpine region views the creation of this cheese as an art form, passed down through the generations.
The creamery is run by third-generation cheesemaker Michel Grossreider owns, who takes care of day-to-day operations with his family.
These wheels are produced at their creamery in Orsonnens with milk from local dairies.
The cheese is ripened in their own caves for 2-3 months, then moved to a different aging facility with AOP certification, then back to Orsonnens to finish aging under Michel's careful eye.
This Gruyère is part of batch selected by Michel to be extra-aged. No more than 50 wheels are released worldwide every year.
