World Cheese Awards 2022 Gold

North Holland Gouda

Beemster Aged

Aged 10 months

Rich and refined, with a creamy texture and delicate
maturation crystals that add depth and a subtle crunch.

Age10 months
MilkPasteurised cow’s milk
TextureSemi-hard and creamy
FlavourRich, refined and nutty

Distinctive by nature

Beautifully matured, remarkably creamy

Beemster Aged is matured for approximately ten months, allowing
its flavour to become rich and pronounced while retaining
Beemster’s signature smooth, creamy character.

Delicate protein crystals develop naturally as the cheese
matures, adding subtle crunch and extra depth. The result is a
satisfying Gouda that feels refined without becoming overly sharp.

Enjoy it on a cheeseboard, slice it into sandwiches, grate it over
pasta or use it to give casseroles and gratins a fuller, savoury
flavour.

Serve it your way
