Traditional Dutch Semi-Hard Cheese from Cow’s Milk

Product Description

Gouda is one of the most iconic cheeses from the Netherlands, known for its smooth texture, mild flavor, and excellent melting qualities. Traditionally made from cow’s milk, Gouda is pressed into round wheels and aged to develop a slightly sweet, nutty character. Depending on age, it can range from creamy and mild (young) to dense, caramelized, and crystalline (aged):

• Made from pasteurized cow’s milk

• Natural rind, often wax-coated (in red, yellow, or black depending on aging)

• Semi-hard texture, golden-yellow paste

• Aged anywhere from 4 weeks (young) to over 12 months (aged)

• Rich in calcium and versatile across culinary uses

Tasting Notes

Aged Gouda (e.g., 12+ months):
