Overview
Visit the cheese cellars, where L'Etivaz AOP cheese is stored and matured. The visit ends with a cheese tasting.
Welcome to the Maison de l'Etivaz! Etivaz AOP is a hard cheese from the mountain pastures, made between 10 May and 10 October from raw milk supplied by more than 2,800 cows grazing on some 130 mountain pastures located at an altitude of between 1,000 and 2,000 metres, heated exclusively over a wood fire in copper boilers. An alpine cheese by definition, Etivaz AOP meets precise and demanding specifications. The raw milk comes from cows that feed on the rich natural grassland, the quality of which influences the typical aroma and taste of L'Etivaz AOP. More than 60 producers bring their cheeses from the mountain pastures to the Etivaz cellars for maturing and refining.
