Description Mèkkerstee Extra Matured - Organic Goat Cheese

With the Mèkkerstee Extra Matured - Organic Goat Cheese, you taste pure perfection from care farm De Mèkkerstee. This exceptional cheese is given no less than 6 months (approx. 26 weeks) to ripen. Because the moisture slowly evaporates, the flavors concentrate and the cheese transforms into a powerful, robust delicacy with a distinctly piquant character. The development of visible salt and protein crystals provides a pleasant 'crunch' in the mouth. And the great thing is: due to the high quality of the organic goat's milk, the dairy remains irresistibly soft and melting. 100% pure nature and unsurpassed in taste.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Mèkkerstee Extra Matured - Organic Goat Cheese

Isn't this Extra Matured goat cheese very dry?

No! This is indeed the case with many long-matured goat cheeses, but the secret of De Mèkkerstee lies in the quality of the organic milk and the loving care of the goats. This ensures that the cheese retains a surprisingly smooth mouthfeel despite 6 months of ripening.

Where do the small white dots in the cheese come from?

Those small white dots are protein and salt crystals. These occur naturally when a cheese ripens for longer than 4 to 5 months. It is an absolute quality characteristic and provides a highly beloved crunchy texture.

Does an Extra Matured goat cheese have a strong goat smell?

The taste is absolutely spicy and concentrated, but De Mèkkerstee cheeses are known for never having that overpowering, sickly 'goaty' aftertaste. This is because the animals live stress-free and are fed 100% organically.

Is this goat cheese suitable for a lactose-free diet?

Yes. Because the cheese has ripened for half a year (6 months), all milk sugars, or lactose, have been completely broken down naturally. So you can enjoy it carefree.

Do you have even older goat cheeses in your assortment?

Yes, for those who like an even more extreme ripening and an intense crumbly structure, we offer the Mèkkerstee Old (matured for up to 1 year). View all variants in the Mèkkerstee Goat Cheese category.
