Bagnes

Bagnes cheese, originating from the Val de Bagnes in Switzerland's Valais region, is a semi-hard, raw milk cheese traditionally produced in local dairies and alpine pastures. With a fat content of approximately 50%, it features a smooth texture with occasional holes.


While it can be enjoyed cold, Bagnes cheese is particularly renowned as a raclette cheese, melting smoothly for the classic Swiss dish. The region's rich dairy farming heritage and the use of high-quality milk from local cows contribute to its distinctive flavor.
