Red Witch

The Red Witch, known as ‘Rote Hexe’ in Swiss-German, is a delectable unpasteurized, raw cow’s milk cheese crafted from the freshest full cream milk available. Its velvety smooth texture and exquisite flavor profile create a truly unparalleled taste experience. The captivating red rind, achieved through a special paprika rub, not only makes this cheese a visual delight at the cheese counter but also contributes to its delicate umami aroma. The Red Witch is a true culinary delight that will elevate any cheese board, introducing you to a whole new world of taste.

The name of this cheese originates from the Swiss tradition of carnival, celebrated in late February, where people dress up in costumes, often depicting scary characters, to ward off the winter season. This Swiss version of carnival lent inspiration to the name of this remarkable cheese, adding a touch of enchantment to its heritage.

The milk used to create The Red Witch cheese is sourced daily from a network of 28 local farmers located within a 10km radius of the dairy. Only the finest hay and grass-fed milk are utilized in the production of this exceptional Swiss raw milk cheese. This careful sourcing ensures that each bite of The Red Witch delivers the essence of the lush Swiss countryside.
