Description Weydeland 48+ Old Matured

The Weydeland 48+ Old Matured is a masterpiece for the true cheese lover. For 10 long months (about 40 weeks), this cheese matures in the tranquility of the Beemster warehouses, developing an incomparably intense and full character. During this phase of ripening, abundant ripening crystals are formed, which provide a delicious 'crunch'. Yet this Old Matured variant retains - thanks to the unsurpassed North Holland meadow milk - that characteristic, smooth Weydeland base. It is the perfect bridge between extra matured and crumbly old cheese.

A Characterful Eyecatcher

When a cheese is given 10 months to breathe and lose moisture, the flavor intensifies enormously. The Weydeland 48+ Old Matured is therefore a true eye-catcher on any cheese or tapas board. Cut it into rough pieces and serve with a scoop of fig chutney or balsamic syrup.

Thanks to its rich profile, this cheese stands excellently on its own, but it is also formidably accompanied by drinks with character. Think of a vintage port, a heavy Cabernet Sauvignon, or a strong Trappist beer. Moreover, grating this cheese over pastas or casseroles instantly elevates your cooking skills to a higher level.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Weydeland 48+ Old Matured

The Weydeland Old Matured ripens for about 10 months (approximately 40 weeks). This long ripening process ensures a firm texture and a deep, concentrated taste full of crystals.

Does this cheese still contain lactose?

Is the cheese still sliceable despite the long maturation?

Yes, although the cheese is firmer and slightly crumbly due to crystal formation, the quality of the meadow milk ensures that you can still easily cut or slice it.
