🧀 Fromage & Cime 2025
The 19th edition of a legendary alpine festival
The 19th edition of the Fromage & Cime competition in Ovronnaz has turned into a true gourmet event , a mix of tradition, celebration and pure love of raclette .
This tasting day has, once again, proven that the mountains know how to offer the very best in alpine cheese .
And spoiler alert: this year , the level was literally stratospheric.
The weather was ideal for this tasting day, attracting 3,000 visitors for this magnificent day during which more than 8,000 raclettes were served.
An authentic and highly successful festival in the heart of Ovronnaz
Between its breathtaking panoramic views, the aroma of melting raclette cheese , and the heartwarming village atmosphere, Ovronnaz remains THE magical place for this unique competition. Here, the resort truly lives to the rhythm of tradition.
The producers arrive from the mountain pastures , each with a product crafted according to ancestral know-how. This is far from industrial products: here, it's raw, authentic… and you can taste it immediately.
How does the jury choose the best cheese?
Each edition follows a ritual: the jury, led by the famous Claude Luisier, tastes blind, notes, sniffs, savors, compares.
It's precise, serious… but with the energy of a mountain festival.
The cheeses are numbered, tasted in three series, then the best ones go to the final.
In short, it's the Champions League of raclette.
And as always, the objective is clear: to determine the best alpine cheese in the valley.
Not just good. The best .
An event that showcases the entire Valais region
The Fromage & Cime 2025 competition goes far beyond tasting : it highlights a heritage that is the pride of the entire community and the producers, and delights the greatest raclette lovers.
For some alpine pastures, a medal means a completely sold-out season.
For the public, it's an opportunity to discover, compare, discuss... in short, to experience a simple but sincere moment.
Such success would simply not be possible without the commitment of the invaluable volunteers and the organizing committee.
Another great success this year.
