Flora Danica is a mesophilic category starter culture known for producing a rich, buttery flavor and aroma that will enhance many different types of cheeses. It may not produce as much acid as an MM100 series but makes up for that in buttery aroma.

This culture is lovely for making bloomy-rinded cheeses (such as brie & camembert -sometimes in combination with an MM100 culture), goats milk cheese, harvati, baby swiss, gouda, edan, blue cheese, homemade butter & buttermilk, crème fraiche, sour cream, cream cheese and cottage cheese.
