ARLA DANBO
Danbo's history started back in 1896 when Rasmus Nielsen, a dairy worker, was awarded a travelling scholarship that took him to the marshland areas of what was at the time Germany on the border to Russia and Poland.
This is where he came across a particularly fat, Russian marshland cheese which tasted so good that he took the recipe back home to Kirkeby Dairy in Denmark where he worked.
Marshland cheese (in Danish: steppeost) was until 1951 the name of the Danish national cheese Danbo. Danbo is today the most popular cheese in Denmark. There is a range of different brands as well as a wide variety of flavours or grades.
Arla Danbo is produced in Tistrup and Taulov Dairies in Denmark.
