Ingredients of Stompetoren Grand Cru
Ingredients:
Fat 48+, pasteurized cow's milk, vegetarian rennet (microbial), salt, starter culture.
A world-class maturation
The Stompetoren Grand Cru is a cheese with a story. Where many old cheeses become dry and tough, this Grand Cru retains its unsurpassed smoothness. This is due to the specific maturation climate in the Stompetoren warehouse. Here, there is relatively high humidity. The cheese is given months - often 18 months or longer - to develop its masterful taste on wooden boards. During this extremely long maturation, the cheese slowly loses moisture and the proteins crystallize. This creates those beloved, crunchy white dots in the cheese: the ripening crystals.
Despite its age and robust, crumbly character, the Grand Cru is remarkably easy to slice due to the high humidity. Another unique feature: this extremely old crumbly cheese is completely vegetarian. By using microbial rennet, this delicacy is accessible to anyone with a vegetarian diet. An absolute king on a luxurious cheeseboard, delicious with a heavy red wine or old port, and a wonderful gift for gourmets.
Freshly cut from the knife for the ultimate cheese experience
At GoudaCheeseShop.com we only go for top quality. That is why we only cut your piece of Stompetoren Grand Cru the moment we receive your order. Fresh from the large cheese wheel (or freshly crumbled)! Immediately afterwards, we pack the cheese tightly and airtight in a vacuum, so that the intensely rich aromas are preserved. We always ship your order with a cooling pack. As long as you keep this old cheese unopened in the vacuum, it will effortlessly stay tasty in your refrigerator for months!
