The intense taste of the silver Extra Piquant Bonck

The Extra Piquant Bonck van Blesckens is the absolute flavor bomb from the robust Bonck family. This cheese is given an exceptional amount of time and peace to mature on wooden boards in the traditional cheese warehouse. During this lengthy process, the moisture evaporates, causing the flavors to concentrate enormously. This creates a sturdy, slightly crumbly structure that is overloaded with crunchy protein crystals. A pure treat that you instantly recognize by the iconic branding mark in the natural rind.

That we are dealing with a masterpiece here was recently confirmed with a beautiful silver medal during the World Cheese Awards 2024-2025. This award underlines the rich, complex, and distinctly piquant notes of the cheese. The Extra Piquant Bonck is at its best on a luxurious cheese board, as a savory conclusion to a good dinner. Serve the cheese at room temperature, together with a sweet balsamic or fig syrup and a robust glass of port or a heavy red wine.

Freshly cut from the wheel for the very best quality

At GoudaCheeseShop.com, we only deliver the very best freshness. As soon as your order for the Extra Piquant Bonck comes in, we cut the cheese freshly for you from a large, authentic whole cheese.

Immediately after cutting, we vacuum-pack the cheese tightly and airtightly. To optimally preserve the award-winning aromas, structure, and flavor during transport, we ship your order with a cooling pack. This ensures you receive a super fresh product at home, which remains in top condition for many weeks thanks to the vacuum packaging. Ideal to always have a prize-winning piece of cheese in the house!

 

Frequently Asked Questions about the Extra Piquant Bonck

What makes the Extra Piquant Bonck unique?

The Extra Piquant Bonck is the longest matured variant from the Bonck van Blesckens family. Due to the extra long maturation on wooden boards, this 48+ cheese has a very intense, powerful flavor and a slightly crumbly structure full of delicious, crunchy ripening crystals. In 2024-2025, this cheese deservedly won Silver at the World Cheese Awards.

Are the white spots in the cheese mold?

No, absolutely not! The white spots you see and taste in the Extra Piquant Bonck are protein crystals (or salt crystals). These arise naturally during a long maturation process and are the quality hallmark of a beautiful, aged cheese. They give the cheese that beloved 'crunch'.

Is this cheese suitable for a cheese board?

The Extra Piquant Bonck is the ultimate king of the cheese board! Crumble it into robust pieces and serve it with a sturdy, old port, a full-bodied red wine, or a dark specialty beer. A small drop of sweet fig dip makes the taste experience complete.

How long can I store this extra piquant cheese?

Because this cheese has matured extra long and is therefore somewhat harder, it can be stored perfectly. Unopened in our tight vacuum packaging, it will certainly stay good in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 weeks. After opening, it is best wrapped in cheese paper, after which it will remain in excellent condition for another 2 to 3 weeks.

Do you also sell the milder variants?

Yes certainly! If this extra piquant and crumbly cheese is just a bit too intense for you, check out our full category of Bonck van Blesckens. There you will also find the very accessible 'Mild and Creamy Bonck' and the 'Piquant Bonck'.
