About Geitost Cheese

Geitost, also known as Gjetost, Mysost, or Fløtemysost, is a traditional Norwegian cheese made from a blend of cow's and goat's milk. This semi-hard cheese is unique for its production process, which involves caramelizing the milk sugars, giving it a distinct brown color. The flavor is predominantly sweet, with a burnt caramel taste that sets it apart from other cheeses. It has a natural rind and an aroma reminiscent of caramel, making it a popular choice for those who enjoy sweet flavors in their cheese. Often used in breakfast dishes, it can be sliced thinly and served on bread or crackers. Geitost is an iconic part of Norwegian cuisine and is enjoyed by cheese enthusiasts around the world.
