Interesting. I wonder if other types of cheese would work in a cup of coffee, since I doubt I can easily get my hands on this kind. Maybe Butterkase, it's soft, mild, and buttery.

I was half expecting to read about coffee-flavored cheese.

I tried chocolate cheese once. We were thinking, chocolate = good, cheese = good. Chocolate Cheese = EVEN BETTER!

We were wrong. It was terrible.

I’ve experimented in the US since “real” kaffeost is hard to get ahold of, and I’ve found Wisconsin cheese curds to work the best.

If you're in proximity to Wisconsin, https://carrvalleycheese.com has various bread cheeses ( https://carrvalleycheese.com/product-category/bread-cheese/ ) can be found in the specialty cheese section of many grocery stores.

For coffee, you'd likely want the one without other things in it ( https://carrvalleycheese.com/product/bread-cheese/ )

> In Finland there is a cheese called Juustoleipa. This translates into cheese bread. We make ours different but better with oven baking it until it has a browned crusty top. Pop it in your oven or microwave until it glistens. Serve it with your favorite dip as a delicious snack. Good as is!

Note the pairings recommended:

> Honey, jam, syrup, coffee

It looks like you can order it from there too.

Chocolate and Cheese is also the name of one of the greatest rock albums of all time.

I know the reference, but I can't put my finger on it ;)

Halloumi has a similar squeaky texture so you could try that. The taste is not the same, though.

I’ve heard dark chocolate and parmesan make a nice pairing.
