Aperitif
The aperitif is one of the great Swiss traditions that shouldn’t be missed. Before dinner is served, friends and family gather for a course of drinks along with accompaniments like wine, bread, crackers, nuts, cured meats and sausages. A perfect reflection of Swiss hospitality and cuisine, an aperitif brings together people for an extended moment of relaxation, conversation, delicious wines and drinks, and preparedness for the amazing meal that lies ahead.
To elevate your aperitif to something you’ll never forget, visit a mountainside vineyard for a wine and walk, like the ones in Lavaux. Or a cheese tasting at the Er de Lens Alpine pastures and Tambourin wine cellar.
