Fløtemjølkost Cream-Enriched Goat Whey Cheese from Japan

Norwegian Fløtemjølkost made from goat's whey with minimal cow's cream addition (under 20% total cow's milk equivalent), maintaining primary goat whey character. Qualifies for HTS 0406.90.20.00 as the tariff explicitly permits whey from goat's milk mixtures with ≤20% cow's milk by weight. The small cream addition creates subtle richness while preserving traditional Gjetost profile.
