Jarlsberg is a Norwegian firm ripened cheese. It's noted for it's nutty flavour and large holes. Anytime a cheese has holes I can't help but make comparisons to traditional Swiss cheeses. Jarlsberg has a nice flavour, not too sharp but neither overly mild. It does remind me of Swiss cheese but has a milder finish than most. The Jarlsberg website makes a bid to do about how the secret recipe is one of Norway's "most closely guarded secrets" but the marketing aside they do make a delicious cheese. After some more research I found out that Jarlsberg is inspired by local Norwegian Swiss cheeses produced in the early 19th century after visits from Swiss cheese makers.
I'd say Jarlsberg is a perfect choice for sandwiches and cheeseburgers. It's got a nice flavour and texture, definitely a winner.
