The irresistible taste of De Rotterdamsche Oude

What makes De Rotterdamsche Oude of 55 weeks so incredibly special? This masterful premium cheese has matured peacefully on wooden planks for over a year. As a result, an unprecedentedly deep, complex and intense flavor has emerged. The cheese is robust and spicy, but at the same time has a warm, slightly sweet undertone. The texture is firm and wonderfully crumbly. Moreover, with every bite you are surprised by large, white ripening crystals that provide a delicious crunch.

A whole cheese wheel of this extra old crumbly cheese is a spectacular showpiece at any luxury event or extensive drink. It is a dream for large consumers and gourmets who want to serve their guests the absolute best. Break the cheese into robust pieces, serve with a spoonful of fig dip and combine with a powerful red wine or a strong dark beer. Bring the pride of the port city into your home with this cheese wheel!

Frequently Asked Questions about Whole Cheeses

How long can I keep a whole old cheese?

A whole, uncut cheese in the original coating can often be kept outside the refrigerator for weeks to months, provided it is stored in a cool and dark place. As soon as the cheese is cut or vacuum-packed in pieces, store it in the refrigerator.

Is there a discount on a whole cheese?

Yes, certainly. Buying a whole wheel of cheese is proportionately always cheaper than buying individual pieces. Ideal for large consumers and parties!

What does matured for 55 weeks mean?

This means that the cheese has had more than a year to ripen on wooden planks. This long process extracts moisture from the cheese, making the taste extremely concentrated and creating the characteristic salt and protein crystals (the crunch).

Do you also sell other whole cheeses?

Absolutely! In addition to this crumbly cheese, we have wheels of Gouda, matured and various herb cheeses. View our complete category Whole Cheese to discover all large cheeses.
