Description Weydeland 35+ Extra Matured
The Weydeland 35+ Extra Matured forms the perfect bridge between a smooth matured cheese and an intense old cheese. During the careful maturation of approximately 30 weeks (7 months) in the North Holland warehouse, much moisture evaporates. As a result, the flavors concentrate into a beautiful, robust, and spicy profile, with the addition of those delicious crunching protein crystals. Because it is a 35+ cheese, it contains significantly less fat and proportionately more protein. Nevertheless, the superior meadow milk guarantees that the dairy remains smooth enough to slice nicely. A conscious choice for the true connoisseur.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Weydeland 35+ Extra Matured
Are there ripening crystals in this 35+ cheese?
Yes! Due to the long maturation time of about 7 months, the proteins have had ample time to crystallize. This provides the highly coveted, slight 'crunch' while eating.
Why does this cheese taste saltier or spicier?
Because the cheese ripens for a long time, much moisture evaporates. This concentrates the natural salts, proteins, and flavors, resulting in a richer, more robust, and spicier taste compared to young cheese.
Is the 35+ Extra Matured lactose-free?
After 7 months of maturation, almost all lactose has been naturally broken down. This cheese is therefore excellently tolerated by most people with a lactose intolerance.
Can I still grate this firm cheese well?
Certainly, because of its slightly harder, compact structure, this extra matured cheese is actually fantastic for grating. Ideal for providing pasta or oven dishes with a flavorful and leaner topping.
Does Weydeland have other 35+ variants with less fat?
Yes, there is a 35+ cheese for every taste! From the extremely mild 35+ Young to the very intense 35+ Old. Discover them all in the Weydeland Cheese category.
