Description Weydeland 48+ Extra Old
The Weydeland 48+ Extra Old is unique in the cheese world. While most cheeses become extremely hard and crumbly after 18 months of ripening, this 'sliceable extra old' cheese is specially selected for its smooth qualities. The master cheesemakers of CONO allow this cheese to mature in peace for about a year and a half, giving it an incomparably spicy and deep character. The cheese is packed with crispy protein crystals, but because the base consists of the very best North Holland meadow milk, the dairy retains a surprising amount of creaminess. An unsurpassed taste sensation that melts on your tongue.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Weydeland 48+ Extra Old
What exactly does 'sliceable extra old' mean?
Extra old means the cheese has been matured for a very long time (in this case 1.5 years). Often these cheeses become very hard and crumbly. However, this specific Weydeland variant is specially prepared and selected to remain creamy enough - despite its long maturation and intense flavor - so you can still easily slice it with a cheese slicer.
How long does an Extra Old cheese mature?
This cheese is in the ripening warehouse for about 18 months (a year and a half). Because of this, the flavors concentrate into a beautiful sweet-spicy and extremely robust aroma.
Is the cheese suitable for lactose intolerance?
Yes, absolutely. Because of the very long maturation process of a year and a half, all milk sugar (lactose) has been broken down. So you can enjoy it without any worries.
Are the white spots mold?
Certainly not. The white 'dots' you see and taste are protein and salt crystals. These arise during the long maturation and are the absolute hallmark of a top-quality extra old cheese. They provide that highly sought-after slight 'crunch'.
Do you also have a variant that is completely crumbly?
Yes! If you prefer a cheese that is even older and crumbles completely (like Parmesan), try the Weydeland Crumbly cheese. View the entire assortment in the Weydeland Cheese category.
