Oltermanni is a brand of Finnish cheese that is similar to the Danish cheese Havarti. It is often eaten on rye bread, or with other meals (e.g. karelian pasties). Oltermanni is manufactured by Valio. The cheese is less salty than others. [1][2]
Oltermanni cheese is a product developed by the Isokyrö cooperative dairy (Kyrönmaa Dairy Cooperative since 1984). A small cylindrical Oltermanni wrapped in a yellow bag was given to each Valio milk producer in 1980 as a gift to celebrate Valio's 75th anniversary. Cheese for general sale was launched in 1981. At the same time, a researcher who wrote a doctoral thesis at the Oltermann Institute proposed the cheese to Oltermanni, which subsequently came true.
In 1997, Oltermann began to produce light cheese with a fat content of 17% by weight. The product family expanded in 2008 with Valio Oltermanni's 9% low-fat cheese. In addition, Valio produces a cheese-like product containing vegetable fat, Valio Oltermanni rapeseed. Oltermanni Cheese with a 33% fat content is sold in Finland under the name Oltermanni Täyteläinen.
