Emmental cheese

Emmental cheese is often called "king of cheeses" – a title is earns through its complex and demanding production process. But Ljutomer Emmental is more than just a king — it is a ruler with a long-standing tradition and noble heritage.

Aged for 60 days our Emmental develops its distinctive texture and reach, full flavor.

Each year, our Emmental consistently receives top marks for exception quality and the International Milk and Dairy Products Evaluation at the Agra Fair in Gornja Radgona, where it has repeatedly been awarded the title of Champion.

With it sweet, nutty taste reminiscent of walnut kernels, Emmental pairs wonderfully with a good glass of wine. Its mild, balance flavour also makes it a great choice for children.
 
Emmental is made from heat-treated cow’s milk, to which lactic acid and propionic acid bacteria are added – essential for forming the signature holes that give the cheese its iconic look. For the best experience, let the cheese sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving, allowing his full aroma and flavour to emerge.


Pomurske mlekarne is the only Slovenian dairy and one of the few in Europe that produces Emmental using a traditional method, with the utmost care and dedication.
