This cheese received its name in the days when it was customary for Swedish farmers to donate a tenth of everything they produced to the local priest; and only the very best would do. A distinctive cheese with a rich and strong flavor, enjoy Prastost as you would a fine Cheddar - as a snack or shredded atop chili or soup.- Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

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.
- 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 the U.S.A.
- 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.
- 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.

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. Produced in Northern Sweden, Vasterbotten is aged for over 11 months and thus is dry, reminiscent of a young Parmigiano Reggiano or an aged Cheddar. Its flavor is rich and full-bodied with a tangy, bittersweet bite. Serve it in the Swedish tradition with some ginger snaps and a cup of hot glogg.- Made from pasteurized cow's milk.
- We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.

VODCheese is a unique cheese brought to the U.S. by Ulla Nylin, a native of Falköping in Västergötland. Raised in Sweden's dairy capital, Ulla has used her knowledge of Swedish taste traditions and created an award winning cheese that combines two of Sweden's most successful tastes - Absolut Vodka and 12-month aged Prästost. VODCheese is a mildly sharp, semi-soft cheese, making it ideal to serve on its own with unsalted crackers, or as part of a cheese tray. Alternatively, with its flavorful overtones, you could surprise your guests and serve it as a dessert cheese. Great with a crisp chardonnay! Varieties sold separately.- Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Just below the Arctic Circle where winter nights are endless, a master Swedish Dairyman created the perfect cheese for children and adults alike - Graddost. Today it's made across Scandinavia, with our variety hailing from Denmark. It's a one pound cylinder with a satiny ivory body and evenly distributed holes. Cave cured and bathed in pure glacial water, this delicacy's singular flavor is born from the extra rich milk of pampered cows. It is a very creamy cheese that practically melts in your mouth. Perfect as either an appetizer or dessert, Graddost will become a family favorite in no time. - Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Herrgardsost is the most popular type of cheese in Sweden and has been produced since the 18th century, when it was created by a Swedish cheese master. Our version, named Vadenost after the Swedish port city, has a similar flavor but distinctly softer texture than English Cheddar. Although made from pasteurized cow's milk, Vadenost maintains a full-bodied, slightly grassy flavor.
