A bold, cave-aged hard cheese from Central Switzerland, Althorn delivers an intense yet balanced flavour with a beautifully classic texture.
Produced by the renowned Seiler Käserei AG, this cheese is matured in natural cave cellars where it develops depth, structure and a rich, savoury profile. Expect a firm, slightly crumbly paste with a full-bodied character that lingers on the palate.
Awarded Super Gold at the World Cheese Awards 2025, Althorn stands among the world’s finest cheeses—recognised for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship.
Crafted from pasteurised cow’s milk and aged for up to 14 months, Althorn combines traditional Swiss cheesemaking with a modern edge—resulting in a powerful alpine cheese that remains clean and refined.
Perfect for a cheese board where stronger flavours are welcome, or shaved over warm dishes to add depth and complexity.
