You can find Appenzeller cheese at several specialty cheese shops and delicatessens across Melbourne. Here are some reliable locations to check:

Specialty Cheese Shops

• The Red Cow / Alpine Express: They are major importers of Swiss cheese in Australia. While they primarily operate online with delivery to Melbourne, they supply many local retailers.

• Cornelius Cheesemongers (Brunswick): Located at 10-16 Syme St, they specialize in artisan and farmhouse cheeses and often stock Swiss varieties.

• Spring Street Grocer (CBD): This shop features an underground cheese cellar and is known for a high-quality selection of European imports.

• The Corner Larder (Queen Victoria Market): Situated in the Dairy Hall (Shops 33-35), they carry a wide range of international cheeses.

Markets and Delis

• South Melbourne Market: Check Emerald Hill Delicatessen or South Melbourne Continental, both of which have extensive cheese counters.

• The Wursthutte (Malvern East): Located on Waverley Road, they focus on German and Swiss products and specifically list Appenzeller in their inventory.

• Prahran Market: Visit Pete N Rosie's Deli, which is a frequent stockist for premium European hard cheeses.

If you are looking for a specific age profile, such as the "Surchoix" or "Extra," it is often worth calling ahead as stock can vary depending on recent imports.
