TYPES OF EMMENTAL
There are different types of Emmental:
- Swiss Emmental: this type is the most famous and widespread, and has also been the first to appear on the market. In fact, the name 'Emmental' comes from its area of origin, the Emmental Valley in the canton of Berne, located in the central Alps. It comes in three varieties: mature, ripe and mild. Its moulds are often very large, ranging from 80 to 100 kg.
- French Emmental: is smaller in size than the previous one and includes three kinds: de Savoie (PGI), Est-Central (PGI) and Gran Cru.
Bavarian Emmental or Emmentaler: produced in Germany and processed in a very similar way to Swiss Emmental. - Finnish Emmental: this cheese is basically for export and is very similar to Bavarian Emmental.
