Danbo is a semi-soft, aged cow's milk cheese from Denmark. It was awarded (PGI) status under European Union law in 2017.[1]
The cheese is typically aged between 12 and 52 weeks in rectangular blocks of 6 or 9 kg (13 or 20 lb), coated with a bacterial culture. The culture is washed off at the end of the aging cycle, and the cheese is packaged for retail sales.
