Day 4 in Switzerland. How lucky are we? We went to learn how to make “GRUYERE ALPAGE” in the alps the traditional way in a copper kettle over open flames. ?! Hopefully we’ll get a chunk sent to LA to do an educational class for y’all?? We smell like firewood and sweet milk…now on to Charmey to enjoy the Desalpes festivities. #besttripever #theoldway #alpinecheese #gruyerealpage #themoreyouknow #learningeveryday #payitforward

Day 3 in Switzerland started at 6am in Tufertschwil to watch the cows being milked and fed to make CHÄLLERHOCKER! They have 35 cows but get milk from 10 other farms in town. Some walk over with jugs on a dolly, others drive tractors, sedans or makeshift scooters to bring the milk to the dairy. Today Walter made 46 wheels from the milk they received. After the cheesemaking we had snacks of cheese and sparkling apple juice on the deck (with his wife Annelise) before going over the the cellars where the wheels are aged. The best way to start out the day. #hollaforchallerhocker #mybrainisfull #overload
