Overview

Established by Fritz Maurer, one of the first Swiss to work in Bhutan, the Swiss Farm is a development project that is now run by his son. The project introduced brewing, farming machinery and fuel-efficient, smokeless wood stoves to the valley, as well as its first tourist guesthouse. The milk from large Jersey cattle is used in Bhutan’s only commercial cheese factory and Bhutan’s native beer, Red Panda, is brewed here
