Jarlsberg or gtfo.
Ah, the birth of Jarlsberg cheese—a tale as rich and intriguing as the cheese itself. Let me take you back to the heart of Norway in the 1950s, where this story unfolds from the eyes of a cheese connoisseur.

The Birth of a Legend: A Cheese Lover’s Memoir
by Jarls Berg

I still remember the crisp, cool air of the Norwegian countryside, a subtle hint of milk and grass lingering as I strolled through the farm. It was the dawn of a new era, an era that would forever change the landscape of cheese-making. We were on the brink of creating something magnificent—Jarlsberg.

It all started with Professor Ole Martin Ystgaard at the Agricultural University of Norway. A man of vision and passion, Professor Ystgaard had a dream: to craft a cheese that blended the nutty, sweet flavor of Emmental with the texture and body more suited to Norwegian tastes.

Days turned into weeks as we experimented in the farm's quaint, stone-walled cheese house. Milk from the local cows, fresh and luscious, was the foundation of our endeavour. We tinkered with cultures, molds, and aging processes, striving for the perfect balance.

One frosty morning, as the sun's rays barely kissed the snowy hills, we unveiled our creation. The cheese wheel—golden, round, and speckled with distinctive holes—was a sight to behold. But the true magic happened when we took that first bite.

Smooth and creamy, with a delicate balance of sweetness and a subtle nutty undertone, the cheese was a symphony of flavours. The texture was just right—firm yet yielding, a testament to our meticulous process.

Word of our creation spread quickly through the valleys and fjords. Jarlsberg wasn't just a cheese; it was a testament to our heritage, our commitment to quality, and our unyielding quest for perfection. It didn't take long before Jarlsberg became a beloved staple, not just in Norway, but around the world.

As I look back on those early days, the laughter, the hard work, and the sheer joy of creation, I'm filled with pride. Jarlsberg cheese is more than just a product; it's a piece of Norwegian history, born from passion and perseverance.

Fresh and luscious cows. Yes, this makes sense.

An elite cheese.
