Obwaldner Alpkäse is a full-fat hard cheese made on the Obwalden summer alps from raw milk. The curd is cut to pinhead size and cooked just above 50 °C, pressed for about a day in a round wooden hoop (Järb), and brined three to four days, which makes it saltier than Bernese alp cheese. It ripens dry, without smearing, first in a wooden store on the alp and then in valley cellars. Made in 7 steps over 3.1 months – 2 years. The longest step, ripen dry in the wooden store, then the valley cellar, takes 3 months – 2 years (Verein Kulinarisches Erbe der Schweiz (Patrim…) and runs at 10–20 °C (Verein Kulinarisches Erbe der Schweiz (Patrim…). Lactic acid bacteria cultures does most of the fermenting.

What makes this one different
Obwaldner is a hard cheese cooked just above 50 °C, while neighbouring Nidwaldner Alpkäse is semi-hard, cooked to about 45 °C with coarser grains, moister and quicker to ripen. It is brined longer than Berner Alpkäse, so it is saltier, and it ripens dry like Sbrinz instead of being smeared.
Size
10–12 kg; dry, nearly blind paste with a few pinhead-size holes
Ripening
From three months; mature at about eight months; can be kept two years
This is a raw-milk cheese. ANSES advises pregnant women, young children, people over 65 and people with weak immunity not to eat raw-milk cheeses, except cooked pressed cheeses; Obwaldner is cooked above 50 °C and pressed.
Hazards the sources name: Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella and Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli (raw-milk risks named by ANSES; cooked pressed cheeses are the exception to its advice).
Obwalden and Nidwalden were long treated together as Unterwalden. Rennet cheesemaking took hold there in the 17th century, after centuries of sour-milk products. In the 19th century export duty was charged per cheese, which favoured big wheels from big herds; smaller herders made smaller cheeses for home use, the ancestors of today's Obwaldner and Nidwaldner Alpkäse. Under the Swiss Alp ordinance only cheese made in the summering area may be called Alp cheese.
