In the 1960s, one of the oldest cheese producing companies in Denmark - Tholstrup Cheese Company, initially prepared Castello Blue cheese. This soft cheese made from cow's milk has a mild spicy flavour and smooth and rich texture.

Castello was acquired by Arla Foods, and they expanded Castello cheese in North America. Castello is a brand of cheeses and several cheeses, including blue cheeses, cream cheeses, and semi-hard cheeses that are marketed under the 'Castello' name.
