Jarlsberg
Jarlsberg is a Norwegian cheese made with cow's milk. It has a semi-soft texture, while the flavors are mild, buttery, and slightly nutty. The cheese was invented by Anders Larsen Bakke in the village of Vale, not far away from Oslo. Jarlsberg has characteristical irregular holes dispersed throughout its body, which is why it's often marketed as a Swiss cheese.
The cheese melts exceptionally well, and as a result it is used in fondues, quiches, and sandwiches. It is recommended to pair Jarlsberg with a glass of Merlot.
