Alfred Guggisberg, at the age of 16 started the art of cheesemaking in the high pastures of the Swiss Alps. He attended the famous Swiss Federal "Molkereishulle" or cheesemakers institute, and for a number of years made cheese throughout Europe. Looking for a new challenge, Alfred ventured to the United States in 1947, leaving his young family behind for one year.
After moving to Ohio, it soon became apparent to all that Alfred's high standard of quality marked him as an exceptional cheesemaker. As a result of his talented abilities, local Amish farmers in search of a cheesemaker (to provide a market for their milk) lured Alfred to the nearby Doughty Valley. Hence, the Doughty Valley Cheese Co. began. Doughty Valley Cheese Co. went on to become what we now know as Guggisberg Cheese.
In the early years of establishing himself in the Doughty Valley, Alfred began to experiment with the idea of a new cheese. Specifically, he was looking for a cheese that would be more acceptable to the American palate, and appeal to young and old alike. Working with the milk from the lush green pastures of the Doughty Valley, and using his knowledge of various traditional cheeses, Alfred started working on his idea.
After years of experimenting, Alfred created a new Swiss Cheese which met his standards. This new cheese produced a smaller wheel size, and a distinctively smooth and mild taste. Visually this cheese also produced a product with smaller "eyes".
