A springtime specialty, this raw cow’s milk cheese is made with fresh wild ramps that are foraged by the cheesemaker and added to the paste. This limited production cheese has culinary and visual appeal, a wonderful fragrance, and fresh, delicate garlic flavor.
The cheese is semi-firm and light yellow with small pieces of ramps generously studded throughout. Robust, hearty, and herbaceous, with the flavor of fresh garlic, this is the flavor of the season. There is some well balanced sharpness that keeps you going back for more.
Cheesemaker Franz Renggli forages fresh wild ramps around his dairy for this special seasonal cheese. He adds them to local cow’s milk from the Biosphere Entlebuch, a small, high plateau in central Switzerland that is protected by UNESCO and known for its biodiversity. This artisan cheese is only made in the spring and has a delicate garlicky flavor that will appeal to many palates. It melts superbly and would be delicious in a grilled cheese, omelet, or simply with some crackers.
