Kars Gruyère (200 g)

Gruyère is a nutritious cheese rich in vitamins and minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus. It is made the natural way from the milk of cows grazing the fertile pastures of Kars, and aged in special cellars for six months to two years.

Fermentation is complete before it reaches you, so the cheese is easy to digest and well balanced. Its strong, distinctive aroma makes it a favorite with people who like refined flavors.

The cheese is Swiss in origin. It reached Turkey when Russian troops entered Kars during the First World War, and it has been made carefully in Kars ever since. Like wine, it deepens with time.
