WORLD'S BEST CHEESES
Red Witch
THE CREATORS OF THIS SEMI-HARD, RAW, WHOLE-MILK CHEESE wanted
something festive to celebrate Carnival, or Fastnacht, season in Switzerland.
"They needed a cheese they could munch on while drinking, that could
sustain them a little," explains importer Caroline Hostettler.
So they developed a cheese with personality. From the cayenne-rubbed
red rind to the red and black witch-adorned packaging, this cheese is an
instant eye-catcher. But its robust flavor is what makes Red Witch truly
memorable.
Made in Rossruti, a tiny town in northeastern Switzerland, the cheese
is aged in cellars, on wood boards, for nine months or longer. It's creamy
and aromatic, with a nutty flavor and a kick of cayenne in its pepper-
rubbed rind. Quite intentionally, it pairs well with wine, beer, and other
spirits. Suggested retail price: $25.99/pound. Contact: Stephanie Ciano;
