Signature Gouda by L'Amuse- 2 Years

Founded by Betty Koster, Fromagerie L'Amuse has become synonymous with the crafting of exceptional cheese. From sourcing the finest milk to her commitment to keeping traditional cheese-making methods alive, L'Amuse has carved a niche in the world of premium cheeses characterized by their dedication to quality.

Signature Gouda is aged for 2 years, transforming the classic Dutch cheese and adding layers of nuanced flavor. Crafted from cow's milk, each wheel undergoes a meticulous aging process that imparts depth and complexity to its profile. The result is a Gouda cheese that balances rich, nutty undertones with a caramelized sweetness.

Offering a firm but creamy texture punctuated by a crystalized casein crunch. Matured at a higher temperature than traditional Gouda, the added heat helps the wheels retain more moisture and creates an aged cheese that’s unusually creamy.

A versatile choice it pairs exquisitely with an array of accompaniments. Whether enjoyed with classic charcuterie or melted into a gourmet sandwich, this aged cheese elevates any culinary experience. Wine enthusiasts will appreciate its compatibility with full-bodied reds like Bordeaux, Côtes du Rhône, or sweet Port, enhancing the intricate flavors of the cheese.

Betty Koster and the team at Fromagerie L'Amuse are guardians of the Dutch cheese-making legacy. The Signature Gouda is a living testament to their dedication to preserving the techniques and practices of generations past.
