Origin
The Grand Cru also has its origins in the province of North Holland, just like the other types of cheese in the Stompetoren range. But the Grand Cru is the oldest cheese in the range. Experts also describe this old cheese as "the masterpiece of the collection". The cheese has matured for no less than 18 months in the special Stompetoren ripening warehouse, but this old cheese is still easy to cut. Moreover, the cheese does not get dry at all thanks to the special high temperatures and high humidity in the ripening warehouse.
Combination
This unique old cheese is of course extremely suitable as a wonderful addition to your cheese board. You can easily combine the Grand Cru with a delicious glass of red port. But also with a good glass of dry red or white wine, or even a specialty beer. This cheese is also perfect for grating over your pasta, thanks to the full, spicy taste.
