Why this North Holland Gouda won silver

The Extra Matured North Holland Gouda is not just any cheese. At the prestigious World Cheese Awards 2024-2025, this cheese was awarded silver by an international expert jury, and rightfully so. The secret lies in the pastures of North Holland. The salty sea breeze and fertile clay soil provide tender grass and exceptionally rich, creamy cow's milk. Despite the longer ripening time of an extra matured cheese (about 7 to 8 months), the North Holland variant thereby retains an unprecedented soft and creamy texture, combined with a full, slightly sweet flavor.

This cheese proudly bears the Red Seal. This guarantees that the cheese is made with 100% North Holland meadow milk and bears the European quality mark for Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). Whether you serve it on a luxurious cheeseboard, as a savory snack with drinks, or generously sliced over fresh bread: you are guaranteed to taste world-class craftsmanship.

Freshly cut from the knife for the ultimate cheese experience

At GoudaCheeseShop.com we stand for top quality. That is why we do not work with pre-packaged factory cheeses. Only when we receive your order, do we cut your piece of Extra Matured North Holland Gouda fresh from the large cheese wheel. Immediately after portioning, we pack the cheese tightly and airtight in a vacuum. To optimally protect the award-winning flavors and creamy structure, we always ship your cheese with a cooling pack. As long as you keep the cheese unopened, it will stay perfectly fresh in your refrigerator for weeks!

Frequently Asked Questions about Extra Matured North Holland Gouda

What exactly does the Red Seal mean?

The Red Seal is an official European quality mark (Protected Designation of Origin - PDO). It guarantees that the cheese is exclusively made from the milk of cows from North Holland and is also prepared in that province according to the original recipe.

Why is North Holland cheese softer than regular Gouda cheese?

The clay soil in North Holland is naturally salty because the land was reclaimed from the sea. This gives the grass and therefore the milk a different, richer composition. Because of this, the cheese naturally becomes much softer and creamier, even when it has matured longer like this extra matured variant.

How long can I keep this Extra Matured Gouda?

Thanks to our vacuum packaging, you can safely keep the cheese unopened in the refrigerator for 7 to 8 weeks. After opening, it is best to wrap the cheese tightly in cheese paper. It will then stay perfectly tasty in the refrigerator for at least 2 to 3 weeks.

Do you have more cheeses with the Red Seal?

Yes, certainly! We sell all maturations of this authentic regional cheese. From young to intensely old. View our full category North Holland Gouda Cheese.
