Swiss
Varieties
Swiss cheeses include many variations that reflect differences in taste, sharpness, density (dryness), the size of the characteristic holes throughout the cheese, and the overall delicacy or robustness.
Table cheeses
These include the Appenzeller, Emmenthaler, and Gruyere made in Switzerland.
Hard mountain cheeses
Among these cheeses are Sbrinz, Spalen, and Saanen; their availability in the United States is limited.
Sapsago
This is a hard Swiss grating cheese.
Swiss Tilsit
This hard-to-find Swiss variety is a semi-soft table cheese and the finest of the Tilsits. Even more rare cheeses from Switzerland are Raclette, Tête de Moine, and Vacherin Fribourgeois.
