Germany’s famed heritage in smoking foods and ancient mountain-cheese tradition come together in this wonderfully flavorful Beachwood Smoked Gruyere Loaf.
The celebrated nutty creaminess of Gruyere takes on an inspired character when aged over 100 days then expertly smoked over flaming Beachwood shavings in traditional brick ovens. From the deep golden rind to the dense, firm interior, the smoky charm never overpowers but tastefully elevates this savory all natural cow’s milk cheese.
Application: Most famous as a fondue cheese, Smoked Gruyere Loaf adds a delicious twist to the traditional cheese-trio recipe. With superb melt-ability, Smoked Gruyere Loaf is also great for grilled sandwiches, burgers and pasta or potato dishes. Slices easily for deli sandwiches or for a table cheese presentation.
Pairing: Smoked Gruyere Loaf goes well with dark and amber beer. If available, an interesting pairing would be a German Rauchbier (smoked beer). For wine, stick with a full-bodied red, like Shiraz/Syrah.

Perfect pairings
Situated at the foot of the Apennine Mountains in Emilia Romagna: known as the Italian Food Valley for the region’s abundance of delicious specialties, Ermes Fontana is world renowned for their superbly made delicatessen meats.
Mortadella is one of the most celebrated meats of Emilia Romagna, first made by the ancient Romans with myrtle (miratum in Latin) berries, utilizing a mortar (mortario in Latin) and pestle. The name Mortadella is a combination of these two Latin words. Today Mortadella is made with perfectly seasoned, finely ground pork, blended with an even distribution of pure white, high quality pork fat, and, in this case, pistachios for an added sweet-nutty flavor and a refined crunch. This pure-pork sausage has a clean aroma and silky-smooth texture, ideal for Italian sandwiches and appetizers.
Fontana Mortadella is created in a state-of-the-art facility, with the most natural ingredients and the greatest respect for Italian tradition.
