The secret of Old Amsterdam

Old Amsterdam is perhaps the most famous old cheese from the Netherlands, and rightly so. This cheese was born out of an unbridled passion to create the ultimate old cheese: one that has the rich, robust flavor and the beloved crunchy ripening crystals of an old cheese, but without the dry, crumbly structure. Thanks to a strictly guarded family secret and a unique ripening process, that is exactly what Old Amsterdam offers. A cheese with spice and character, which you can still slice smoothly with a cheese slicer.

This handy wedge is ideal for daily use. Slice the cheese over fresh bread, cut it into cubes for a luxurious cheeseboard with a glass of full-bodied red wine, or grate it over your favorite casserole for an intense gratin. What makes this cheese extra special is that it is prepared completely vegetarian with microbial rennet. This way, truly everyone can enjoy this masterpiece.

Carefully packed and shipped refrigerated

At GoudaCheeseShop.com, the quality of your cheese comes first. As soon as we receive your order, the cheese is packed extremely carefully and tightly, so that the rich aromas and creamy texture are perfectly preserved. We provide your package with a special cooling pack. This way, we pack carefully and ship refrigerated throughout Europe. You enjoy absolute freshness, wherever you are!

Frequently Asked Questions about Old Amsterdam Cheese

Are the white dots in the Old Amsterdam cheese salt crystals?

No, the white dots you see and taste in Old Amsterdam are not salt crystals, but protein crystals (ripening crystals). These occur naturally during the unique ripening process and provide the delicious, crunchy 'bite' for which this cheese is so famous.

Is Old Amsterdam suitable for vegetarians?

Yes, absolutely! Only microbial (vegetarian) rennet is used to prepare Old Amsterdam cheese instead of animal rennet. This makes this robust old cheese fit perfectly into a vegetarian diet.

Why doesn't this old cheese break when I slice it?

That is precisely the secret of Old Amsterdam. Through a special recipe and ripening technique, the cheese gets the deep, intense flavor of an old cheese, but retains a smooth structure that allows you to easily cut beautiful slices.

Do you also have other Old Amsterdam products?

Yes, certainly! In addition to this wedge, we sell Old Amsterdam in various weights, sliced pieces, and as whole cheeses. View our complete Old Amsterdam category for all options.
