Delicious cheese! Considering the cost of shipping was/is more than the cost of the product and I bought this at the request of my girlfriend, I was very much wanting this to be worth the cost. I would have to say after tasting this cheese it certainly is!

It was SO good in my mouth it is indescribable. Creamy, sweet, smooth, elegant, groan-inducing from happiness, rich; fantastic with gluten free bread and with crackers. Too rich to eat the entire thing, but my goodness I felt like I wanted to. My girlfriend would also NOT have been happy so I had to refrain from devouring this stuff anyway.

It does not look like much out of the insulated box, but once you start slicing it, you realize there is a good amount.

The shipping includes an insulated container for the cheese, so if you happen to not be present to bring it into the fridge right away it is okay. The seller responded to an inquiry I had regarding this quite promptly and courteously.

Bottom-line: well-worth the cost under $20 total currently (including the cost of shipping). This cheese is so good it will make you buy more. And more. And more.

My husbands family are from Norway, he ate it when he was younger.. He wanted me to try it, and the family have it again for Easter!

Regular commercial goat cheese is a big "yuck" for me, but I love the flavor of Gjetost - kind of like a salty caramel, though not sweet. I used to make my own when I had goats. It's made by boiling down the whey, which is the liquid left after removing the protein and fat (from when you make cheese or butter), so it isn't really like cheese. It contains all the minerals that were left in the whey, as well as some protein, and butter fat that was added for creaminess. It is considered a gourmet item, so it is expensive (it takes hours of boiling to evaporate the liquid in the whey), but I bought it as a healthy treat, because of the natural mineral content.

Great cheese, tried to find it and it took forever. There is not a whole food near by so couldn't get it and Amazon came to my rescue. I had a taste of this great cheese on a bus in Michigan my colleagues bought a cheese plate. Had a taste and I can confirm that this is a great cheese on crackers. It's like caramel, it's SUPER sweet and a little salty but bam that chemistry and I exists. A bit expensive but definitely worth the price. The shipping is a sketchy because its food duh! Overall would recommend. If you find it elsewhere buy it and taste the greatness! Once in a lifetime experience would have regretted that If I didn't find this cheese.

I have never tasted this cheese before. It was lovely with fruit. A bit sweet, like a delicious treat.
