Chaux d’Abel

Chaux d’Abel is produced today in St-Imier according to an old recipe from the cheese dairy of the same name. Made from thermized mountain milk from the Bernese Jura, this cheese is a typical regional product. With its delicate, spicy aroma and creamy, buttery texture, it is loved by many cheese enthusiasts. It is produced exclusively at the Spielhofer cheese dairy and is now one of the main products in its portfolio.
