Arla cheese crafted with care

Cheesemakers crafting your favorite flavors

Cheesemaking dates back hundreds of years – and guess what? The process we use is almost identical to how it was made back then. With only a little mechanical help, our dedicated cheese makers still use natural ingredients – crafted, monitored and assessed by hand. The result? Deliciously mild cheeses from the creamy Gouda and the buttery Havarti, to Arla Sharp Cheddar.

The making of Arla cheese

The cheesemakers craft

DEDICATION

Becoming an Arla cheesemaker takes years of training – from honing ones senses and learning about the traditional methods of making the cheeses to perfecting the skills of the craft. That’s why our dedicated cheesemakers take pride in each and every pack that leaves our dairies.

As pure as milk

KEY INGREDIENT

All natural locally sourced milk with high protein content is the key ingredient to producing the incredible quality of cheese that we do. Our farmers are no further than 100 kilometers from our dairies ensuring that the milk that goes into your cheese is fresh – making cheese just as it’s always been done.

Using the senses

HANDS ON

Our cheesemakers use their hands and senses of taste and touch to assess the cheese throughout its journey. From curds and whey throughout the several weeks of maturation, it’s through the feeling and tasting of the cheese that ensures every bite you have of our Arla cheese is as delicious as the last.
