About Esrom cheese

Esrom is a semi-soft Danish cow’s-milk cheese, generally made as a ripened cheese with a pale interior and a washed rind. It is commonly sold in wedges or slices, and ripening affects the strength of its aroma and flavour.

Its texture is supple and can become creamy as it ripens. The taste is savoury and tangy, becoming more pronounced with age. It is eaten in slices or used melted in cooking; individual cheeses vary with maturation and production.
