Havarti is Denmark's most famous cheese. As havarti ages, it becomes sharper and saltier, having a similar taste to hazelnut. Havarti can be grilled, sliced or melted with ease. The cheese was invented in the mid-1800s by Hanne Nielsen and was originally named "Havarthi" after her farm in Denmark. Havarti is typically aged for 3 months. Currently it is produced in the U.K., Canada and the United States (mainly in Wisconsin, California and New York).
