Ingredients of Matured North Holland Gouda (Red Seal)
Why was this cheese awarded Gold at the World Cheese Awards?
The fact that this Matured North Holland Gouda cheese was awarded Gold at the World Cheese Awards 2024-2025 is no coincidence. North Holland Gouda with the Red Seal is loved worldwide. The meadows in North Holland are partly below sea level. The grass that grows here is naturally richer and slightly salty. The milk produced by the cows here is therefore incredibly soft and rich in proteins and minerals. During the maturation of about 16 to 18 weeks, the matured cheese develops a full, creamy flavor with a very light, pleasant spiciness. The cheese melts on the tongue and leaves a fantastic impression on the palate – qualities that unanimously convinced the international jury of the World Cheese Awards.
Moreover, the 'Red Seal' (Protected Designation of Origin) guarantees that the cheese was truly made in North Holland, with milk from the region, and prepared according to the authentic North Holland recipe. You can use this cheese beautifully on a luxurious cheese board, enjoy it as a snack, or slice it onto freshly baked bread.
Freshly cut from the wheel for the ultimate cheese experience
At GoudaCheeseShop.com we stand for absolute freshness. Only when we receive your order, do we cut your piece of North Holland Gouda accurately and fresh from the large cheese wheel. Immediately after portioning, we pack your cheese completely airtight in a vacuum. To optimally protect the quality, we always ship your order with a cooling pack. As long as you keep the cheese unopened in the vacuum packaging, it will stay fresh in your refrigerator for weeks!
Frequently Asked Questions about 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) that guarantees the cheese is prepared with 100% milk from cows grazing in North Holland. The complete production and natural maturation of the cheese also take place in this province, according to traditional recipe.
What makes this cheese better than a standard matured Gouda?
The milk from the North Holland polders is naturally softer and saltier. This ensures that the cheese needs to be made with much less salt during the production process. The result is a cheese that, compared to standard matured Gouda, is significantly creamier and softer in texture, yet still has a full flavor. This is also the reason why it won Gold at the World Cheese Awards.
Can I eat this cheese while pregnant?
Yes, you can. This cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk, which means the milk has been heated. It is therefore safe to consume during pregnancy.
Do you also sell other maturations with the Red Seal?
Absolutely! We offer North Holland Gouda with the Red Seal in various maturations. View our North Holland Gouda Red Seal category for this.
