Prästost cheese
Prästost (priest cheese), sometimes spelled prastost or prestost, is a Swedish cheese with historical roots in Sweden's one-time custom of paying tithes with agricultural goods including milk. It was common for the church to make cheese from this milk from the 16th to the 19th centuries. Today, it is factory-made from pasteurised cows' milk.
The cheese is sometimes soaked or cured in whisky or other spirits; Saaland Pfarr is one such whisky-soaked variant. A version of prästost, matured for 12 months and cured in Absolut vodka has been marketed as VODCheese.
