About 100 years ago, a farmers wife who lived in North Zealand (one of Denmarks 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. Her finest creation she named after her farm, "Havarthi". Todays 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. Made from pasteurized cow's milk.
