Castello Cheese is a brand of cheeses produced by the Danish company, Arla Foods. The brand is known for its wide range of cheese products, including blue cheese, brie, camembert, and havarti.

History[edit | edit source]

The Castello brand was established in 1893 by Rasmus Tholstrup, a Danish cheesemaker. Tholstrup's aim was to produce high-quality cheeses that would appeal to the international market. Over the years, the brand has expanded its product range and is now sold in over 50 countries worldwide.

Products[edit | edit source]

Castello offers a variety of cheese products, each with its own unique taste and texture. Some of the most popular Castello cheeses include:

  • Blue Cheese: Castello's blue cheese is known for its strong, tangy flavor and creamy texture. It is often used in salads, pasta dishes, and on crackers.
  • Brie: This soft, creamy cheese is characterized by its mild, slightly sweet flavor. It is often served with fruit or bread.
  • Camembert: Similar to brie, Castello's camembert has a rich, buttery flavor. It is often baked and served with bread or crackers.
  • Havarti: This semi-soft cheese is known for its mild, slightly sweet flavor. It is often used in sandwiches or melted on top of dishes.

Production[edit | edit source]

Castello cheeses are produced using traditional cheesemaking methods. The milk used in the production of the cheeses is sourced from local farms, ensuring the highest quality. The cheeses are then aged to perfection, resulting in a range of flavors and textures.
