Family tradition since 1862

Grand Maurice Réserve du Patron®

For special occasions, festive gatherings or for best friends and dear guests - Grand Maurice Réserve du Patron® is served as the well-guarded pearl or „reserve“ of the patron Maurice Lustenberger - founder of Lustenberger & Dürst. The true secret to the Grand Maurice Réserve du Patron®: with its noble, balanced, and fruity and tangy taste, this cheese speciality seduces the taste buds like no other cheese.

Created by the passionate cheesemaker Maurice Lustenberger, the recipe for the Grand Maurice Réserve du Patron® was passed down through generations of the family. Now the best-kept secret is being reintroduced and the cheese speciality is being launched as a new product, linked with the Lustenberger family crest that depicts a deer.

The Grand Maurice Réserve du Patron® is produced with the established family tradition: using untreated raw milk and made fresh on site in the local village dairy. The cheese is handmade and the loaves are matured 8 months using traditional methods and under the close supervision of our „Maîtres d‘Affineurs“ into a unique, fruity and tangy cheese.
