Swiss Tilsit

Swiss Tilsit or Royalp Tilsit is a Swiss cheese produced in the Emmental Valley. The cheese is made from pasteurized or raw cow's milk. The pasteurized version is mild, while the raw one has a stronger flavor and it's called Farmhouse Tilsit.

The third version is made from pasteurized milk and the addition of cream. The cheese is aged for 5 months, making the aromas strong and pungent. Underneath the washed rind, the texture is firm, springy, elastic, and full of eyes. The flavors range from mild and creamy to piquant and spicy.
