Ädelost is a blue cheese from Sweden, made with pasteurized cow's milk. The name means noble cheese, and Swedes also spell it Adelost. It was developed as a Swedish answer to imported blue cheeses, with a creamy paste and blue-grey veins. A thin rind carries a light dusting of mold. The flavor is salty, sharp, and tangy, and people use it as a table cheese or crumbled on a salad.
Moose cheese

- Bjurholm, Sweden
Moose cheese is a rare Swedish cheese made from moose milk in Bjurholm. The animals give little milk, and milking them is slow, so only a small amount of cheese is made. Makers turn that milk into more than one style, including a cheese with a rind, a blue, and a fresh brined cheese. You will not find those styles beside everyday wedges in a normal grocery case. The name refers to the milk, and the short supply is why the cheese stays scarce.
