Le Sapalet Sàrl

Parc naturel régional Gruyère Pays-d'Enhaut - In 1990 dairy farmers and L’Etivaz AOP cheesemakers, Jean-Robert Henchoz and his wife decided to branch out into sheep farming. When they realised there was a growing demand for sheep’s milk products, they gave up rearing dairy cows in Rossinière.
Today, the Henchoz family manages a flock of more than 1,000 sheep, the largest in the Pays-d’Enhaut, which provide milk all year round for the Fromagerie le Sapalet. With the arrival of the younger generations, the farm began expanding its product range. It now features both goat’s and cow’s milk specialities, all of which meet stringent Bio Suisse standards.
Le Sapalet products are now sold across Switzerland. In 2017 the Henchoz family opened a shop at their cheese dairy in Rossinière. As well as the full range of Le Sapalet dairy products, customers can also choose from a selection of meat products, including mutton as well as lunch and deli meats made from pigs reared on the Henchoz farm.
