Product Info
Aged: 18 months
Texture: Firm with some crystallization
Beemster Classic cheese is aged eighteen months to give you even more of the signature nutty and butter-rich flavor profiles you expect from mature Gouda cheeses. These cheese wheels are aged with a century’s old process on specially tempered Beemster aging planks. The result is a firm texture, velvety mouth-feel, and complex flavor like no other.
