Directly at the entrance to the village and the post office is the very beautiful, very modern cheese cellar of the cooperative. Incidentally, L'Etivaz was the first Swiss cheese to be marketed as AOC. Only raw milk from the Alps and rennet from the calves are used in its production. The cheese is made on wood fire only during the approximately 100 days lasting alpine time. A visit is worthwhile and should definitely be ended with a tasting or a good aperitif.
