- littlestymaar 5y ago> Comte and Beaufort maybe This is heresy!
- nchi3 5y agoIt's hard to taste a picture! I'm not saying they're exactly the same, but they're made in extremely similar ways. I'm from a less cheese-y part of Europe, but isn't Comté often called Gruyère de Comté for a reason? Of course they'll taste very different when aged for very different amount of times, but I've found them to be decently similar when aged for similar amounts of time.
- namdnay 5y agoI’ve never seen Gruyère develop those strong flavours (18m+), then again to be fair in France Gruyère is rarely aged
