What is an indication of source?

Swiss coffee or Graubünden walnut cake – indications of source tell consumers where a product was produced or processed. Unlike a trade mark, an indication of source does not refer to a particular company, but to the geographical origin of goods or services. Certain indications of source, which enjoy a particular reputation for a given product, associated with specific qualities of that product (for example Berner Alpkäse for the corresponding cheese), may be protected as geographical indications.
