jumi and our unique cheese
in 1896 our great, great
grandfather began the
“art” of cheese
production. over five
generations, our family
members have become
wonderful cheese artisans,
aiming to develop unique
and delicious flavours and
improve and enrich the
range of Swiss cheeses for
our highly demanding
customers
from raw milk to delicious cheese…
dealing with fresh, raw milk is a very delicate business, and the production process from the milking of the cows to the cheese needs to be rapid. in the
valley of the emmental, the farmers bring their milk to the dairy twice a day, immediately after milking. tradition is highly valued in the art of cheese making, and in this region the farmers transport the full milk cans with the help of tractors, horses or even a dog. it takes
careful handling to ensure that the milk is still warm from the cow when the cheese fabrication process begins.
as the cheese is formed, great patience is necessary – haste makes waste! the cheese is placed into a cellar according to its needs for maturation, whilst being handled and nurtured every morning with the care it deserves by the artisan himself. the art of caseation expresses itself particularly in the process of affinage. after days, months or even years the cheese is taken out of the cellar and can be tasted by the daughters and sons of the artisan and you!
the idea behind Jumi
many years ago, juerg and mike set up the company “jumi” , which has grown and developed over time. jumi´s success is not only though the production of exceptionally high quality cheese, but due to our creative and innovative team. the mix of different people with varied strengths and backgrounds has enabled jumi to advance.
for all the progress we have made, we have not lost sight of our top priority: to ensure the cheese is guaranteed to be of the highest quality, from milking the cows to delivery to and education of the customer. every single step in the process, from milk to cheese is nonindustrial: the cows are outside grazing the pasture everyday and eating the best fresh grass. our cheese products are stocked by carefully selected hotels, restaurants and cheese shops. to experience the spirit of jumi. come and see us at borough market, our north london shops or visit us online!
