Belper Knolle

Jumi Belper Knolle – 70g
Switzerland’s Boldest Cheese Ball – A Spiced Alpine Sensation

Description:
From the celebrated Jumi cheesemakers comes Belper Knolle, an audacious Swiss specialty that defies tradition. This small but mighty 70g cheese ball combines aged raw cow’s milk with a striking crust of crushed black pepper, garlic, and alpine herbs, creating an unforgettable flavor explosion.

Cured for months in the crisp mountain air, the interior develops a firm, crumbly texture with intense umami depth, while the spiced rind delivers a warming, aromatic kick. Originally created to preserve cheese through harsh winters, today it’s a cult favorite among adventurous gourmets.

Why It Stands Out:
✔ Alpine Alchemy – Raw milk from Bernese Oberland pastures, transformed through slow aging
✔ Spice-Crusted – Hand-rolled in coarse Tellicherry pepper and organic garlic
✔ Big Flavor Profile – Starts nutty and caramelized, finishes with peppery heat
✔ Zero-Waste Packaging – Wrapped in traditional parchment, just as Swiss farmers did

Serving Rituals:
◼ Classic Swiss: Grate over Älplermagronen pasta or fondue for a spicy twist
◼ Modern Pairing: Crumble onto steak tartare or roasted root vegetables
◼ Unexpected: Shave thin curls over dark chocolate or honeycomb

Storage: Keep cool (4-8°C). For full aroma, unwrap 15 minutes before serving.

Pro Tip: The rind is edible and packed with flavor – don’t discard it!
