Description:

The Dutch normally keep the best traditional cheeses for themselves. This very rare 15 month old cheese was handmade on the farm from unpasteurised milk. The cheese gets its name “Boerenkaas” from the Dutch words “boer” meaning farmer, and “kaas” which means cheese.

The pure flavours of the raw milk can be tasted; the texture is beautifully dense and smooth. When young it is nutty and rich with a dense creamy texture that intensifies with age, becoming strong and fruity. Tiny calcium crystals like those in Parmesan develop in well-aged wheels.
