Description: Prosten (The Dean) is a matured cream cheese that originally had the name Presten (The Priest), dedicated to the cheesemaker’s friend Sveinung who was the priest of the village. When Sveinung became Prost (Dean), the cheese followed suit and the cheesemaker was very pleased to get the PR for his cheese. Whether Sveinung chooses to become a bishop or car mechanic next, we have promised that the cheese will follow in his footsteps as far as we can. The cheese is a matured cream cheese that is drained into drainage bags before being mixed with Havsnø (salt) from North Sea Salt works. A perfect cheese as an appetizer, for dessert or on a cheese board.

Retailers: Bondens Marked (Farmers' Market), Hol Ysteri, Meny and selected cheese shops.
