Dutch Cheese

Dutch cheese is world renowned for its variety and richness. The Dutch have been producing cheese since at least 400 A.D. The Dutch use both cow and goat milk to produce fine artisan cheeses for both local markets and to be exported around the world. Since Medieval times, Dutch cheese has been sold at specialty cheese markets. Today, visitors to Holland can still visit Woerden, a modern day commercial cheese market.

Perhaps the most famous Dutch cheese is Gouda. This semi hard, creamy cheese makes up almost have of Dutch cheese production. Gouda is sold both young and aged. As it ages, its flavour becomes more sharp and complex. Young Gouda, on the other hand, has a very mild flavor. Super premium Gouda cheese can be found aged for over 48 months. Aged Gouda is typically harder and more crumbly and becomes darker in color. Gouda can be found made with either cow’s milk or with goat’s milk. Buy Cheese Online
