About Luzerner
Luzerner is a mild Swiss cream cheese made by Emmi from pasteurised milk sourced in the Lucerne region, the area where the company's founding cooperatives were based. The range includes the original Rahmkäse, a Rustico variety and a rind-free sliced raclette cheese, all pitched at families who want a gentle cheese rather than a strong alpine one.
