'L'Amuse Signature Gouda' Cow's Milk Cheese, Essex St. Cheese, The Netherlands (8oz, Raw)
Betty Koster founded Fromagerie l’Amuse in 1989 with her husband Martin. Their Amsterdam shop is a destination for cheese lovers, featuring rare, small-production Dutch gems like Wilde Weide and Terschelling. Betty’s deep, long-term connections with Dutch farmers, cheesemakers and opleggers (affineurs) has given her access to an unparalleled range of cheeses. She exports a handful to America exclusively through Essex St. Cheese.
This is the standard bearer of Dutch gouda. Selected by Betty, the gouda is aged for two years until the crunchy flavor crystals are present, but the texture remains creamy on the tongue. Stellar served after dinner.
- Milk Type: Pasteurized Cow's Milk
- Rind: Natural Wax
- Texture: Firm
- Age: approx. 2 years
