The pure taste of the Wezenspyk cheese farm
Our matured Texel sheep cheese is a true delicacy from the famous Wezenspyk cheese farm on Texel. For decades, cheese has been made here in a traditional way from the milk of Texel sheep. Because the sheep graze on the salty meadows of the island, the milk naturally gets a slightly salty and rich taste. This taste comes out beautifully in this matured variant.
What makes this cheese extra special is that it is prepared with unpasteurized, raw sheep milk. As a result, all the natural flavors, enzymes and aromas of the milk are optimally preserved. After preparation, the cheese is allowed to mature peacefully on the island until it has reached the perfect matured character. The result is a firm, creamy cheese with a full, piquant and unmistakably salty island flavor. Delicious on a fresh slice of dark bread, or in combination with a good glass of wine or Texel specialty beer on the cheese board.
Freshly cut from the knife for the highest quality
At GoudaCheeseShop.com we treat this raw milk island cheese with the greatest care. We only cut your piece of Texel sheep cheese fresh from the large cheese wheel as soon as you order. Immediately afterwards, we pack the cheese tightly and completely airtight in a vacuum. To optimally protect the delicate structure, we ship your order with a cooling pack as standard. This way you can immediately enjoy absolute top quality at home.
Frequently Asked Questions about Matured Texel Sheep Cheese
Is this cheese suitable for pregnant women?
No, this Texel sheep cheese is made from unpasteurized (raw) milk. It is therefore strongly advised against pregnant women consuming raw milk cheeses.
Is this cheese vegetarian?
No, traditional animal rennet is used during the artisanal preparation of this cheese. As a result, this cheese does not fit within a strict vegetarian diet.
Why does this cheese taste salty?
The sheep that provide the milk for this cheese graze on the meadows of the island of Texel. The salty sea wind blows constantly over the island, making the grass and the soil slightly salty. You can taste this directly in the rich flavor of the sheep milk and the cheese.
