Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland are the stunning countries that make up Scandinavia. They are linked by distinct, yet related cultures. The pureness of their air, water and land translates into very clean milk, which leads to high quality cheeses. We have chosen a selection of ½ pound cheeses from these countries (with the exception of Iceland) to take you on a cheese tour of Scandinavia.
  • Gjetost: Pronounced YAY-toast, this caramel-flavored cheese comes from a blend of cow and goat's milk. Packed with energy, Norwegian hikers always pack along a block of Gjetost before venturing too far away from home. (8 oz.)
  • Finlandia Swiss: Finland's best-selling, rich and characteristically nutty Swiss. Made from the EU's healthiest milk (IDF, 1995) taken from dairy cows grazing in Finland's pure and clean Northern environment, it's no wonder that Finlandia Swiss is the market leader in its class in the U.S.A. (8 oz.)
  • Västerbotten is the traditional Swedish celebration cheese. To many Swedes, it is considered the "emperor of cheeses", either because of its heft (it is made in 40 pound wheels), or its full flavor. Its flavor is rich and full-bodied with a tangy, bittersweet bite. (8 oz.)
  • Danish Crumbly Blue:Made from cow's milk, it is a white cheese with a delicate network of blue-green veins. Denmark's rich, green grazing pastures and fertile soil contribute to the fine, consistent quality of this world famous product. (8 oz.)
  • Water Crackers: Perfect for serving with cheeses, fruit, and spreads when entertaining. (4 oz.)
  • igourmet.com Signature Cheese Serving Knife: Specifically crafted for us at igourmet.com, this multi-function cheese knife is the perfect tool to easily slice uniform servings of your favorite cheeses.
This gift assortment includes four 1/2 pound cuts packed in our signature chocolate colored gift box, finished with an elegant yellow bow.
  • Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.
