Located in: Cheese, Denmark

About 100 years ago, a farmer's wife who lived in North Zealand (one of Denmark's most romantic islands -- a trysting place for lovers) became interested in the art of cheesemaking. She traveled through Europe to learn the secrets of this craft. Upon her return, she began to experiment with her newly acquired techniques. She named her finest creation after her farm, "Havarthi". Today's Cream Havarti is a direct descendant. It has an ivory interior patterned with a myriad of tiny holes and is mild, creamy and mellow. We are featuring five of our favorite varieties: garlic and herb, dill, jalapeno, caraway and chive. Varieties sold separately.

Made from pasteurized cow's milk.
Photo depicts whole 9 lb. form of cheese.
We cut and wrap this item by the pound.
Please contact us if you would like to purchase the whole form.

Comments about Cream Havarti - Pound Cut:

This was the first real cheese I ever tried about 6 years ago. It was buttery and delicious and the beginning of my love affair with frommage. I can't say how excited I was to place my order and receive my shipment. It was just as I remembered it and made a wonderful snack with some good French bread. It's also yummy all on its own and is great for anyone feeling hesitant about exploring the world of cheese.

Made super-simple hors d'oeuvres with buttery crackers. Love havarti, and this is definitely one of the better ones out there. Tried a different kind from a grocery store and it was no good. This is creamy and good for those with simple tastes, since even kids would like it.
