An intense, punchy flavour

Creamy, full-bodied milk flavour.

With tangy notes of nettle and resin.

A classic sweet yet salty undertone.

Reminiscent of delicate salted caramel.

Soft and smooth on the tongue with a creamy consistency at the finish.

Fades to a savoury, well-balanced intensity with a slightly spicy note.

«My winning breakfast is a power omelette made from organic eggs, mincemeat, Emmentaler AOP Crown shavings, chopped tomato and fresh parsley – with a glass of cold sparkling water and elderflower syrup.»

Matthias Sempach, wrestling champion 2013
