Cultured Butter with Sea Salt is a very rich butter, 85% butter fat, but unlike most butter it is made with live cultures.Gold Medal winner for the unsalted version at the 2017 US Championship Cheese Contest. This multi-day process gives the butter a rich and unique flavor that can actually develop with some aging. This butter is so rich that plain old salt would not do, that’s why we use only sea salt in our cultured butter, so that you get a truly great butter. Cultured butter is a favorite in Europe and can be used in any place where you normally use butter. Cultured Butter with Sea Salt is so rich that many use it as a spread, nothing else needed!
Nordic Creamery’s all-natural butter is certified rBGH free, and is made using cow milk from Wisconsin cows raised on natural grasses and feeds.
A Family Farm
Award-winning Cheesemaker and Buttermaker Al Bekkum and his family live on the Bekkum Farmstead owned and operated by their family since immigration from Norway in 1917.
The farm is located among other Norwegian settlers in Westby, Wisconsin within Vernon County's lush, green hills and valleys known as the Coulee Region. This un-glaciated land is recognized for its fertile soil and exceptional grazing land making their cheese and butter second to none.
Bekkum family members are not only involved in daily farming but also in cheese making. We're family owned and operated and we think you'll love our cheese because our happy cows and goats produce some of the freshest milk in the area!

Naturally Grown & Fresh
Nordic Creamery is making some of Wisconsin's finest gourmet, artisan cheese and butter. We don't mass produce our cheese; we make small handcrafted batches of our cheese in Southwestern Wisconsin's "Driftless" Coulee Region.
Our stock is grass feed in open pastures during the summer and feed a mostly grass hay diet during the winter. We don’t need to add chemicals to our cheese or butter, our secret ingredient is freshness!
