Oh. No. Really not. Comté is way more flavorful and tangy, and develop quartz of salt than crisp when you eat it.

- Agingcoder 5y agoThe crystals are not salt but amino acid, mainly tyrosine.
- Biganon 5y agoI've never been so angry because of an HN comment, nom d'une pipe en bois. But cheers from Switzerland anyway, let's enjoy cheese while we still have a sense of taste.
- dopidopHN 5y agoNon mais vous avez mieux que le gruyère pour rentrer en compète avec le comté non?
- nchi3 5y agoThe crystals are just from aging it for longer, aren't they? Of course a 36 month Comté vs. 4 month Gruye won't have that many similarities compared to a 12 month Comté vs. 12 month Gruyere.
- dopidopHN 5y agoCorrect.Yeah they are. You specify the range of age you want when you buy comté. For Gruyère, I never saw that, but it might be because I grew up a few hours from where it’s made. To clarify : real gruyère is a great cheese. But comte is one of my favorite. Man I miss cheese.
