Ski Queen Classic Gjetost Cheese

Ski Queen Gjetost is a traditional Norwegian brown cheese known for its distinct caramel-like flavor and smooth texture. The cheese is produced using a unique process where whey, milk, and cream are boiled down until the natural sugars caramelize, giving it its characteristic color and sweet taste. It is an iconic staple of Norwegian culture and is widely exported globally under the Ski Queen brand name, particularly to the North American market.

The brand is deeply rooted in Norwegian agricultural heritage, originating from the traditional farmhouse methods of making 'Brunost'. Today, it is manufactured by Tine SA, Norway's largest dairy cooperative which is owned by more than 8,000 Norwegian dairy farmers. The production remains centralized in Norway to ensure the authenticity of the product's traditional recipe and quality standards.
