Appenzeller® Silver Label: A Timeless Tradition
Crafted from the pure, raw milk of cows grazing the lush pastures of the Alpstein region, every Appenzeller® cheese is a testament to centuries of tradition. The Silver Label is uniquely matured for at least three months, during which it is regularly washed with a secret herbal brine. This process imparts a distinctive, complex flavor that has captivated cheese enthusiasts for over 700 years.
Experience the rich heritage of Appenzeller® Silver Label, a cheese that embodies the true essence of the Swiss Alps.
