Gouda cheese is famous here and abroad. The cheese, that thanks its name to the fact it has been sold in Gouda for centuries is our bestseller. Gouda cheese is sometimes called Stolwijker cheese after one of the neighbouring local places where the farmer’s cheese is made.

Gouda, or “How-da” as the locals say, is a Dutch cheese named after the city of Gouda in the Netherlands. If truth be told, it is one of the most popular cheeses in the world, accounting for 50 to 60 percent of the world’s cheese consumption. Smoked Gouda is a variant of this famous cheese wherein it is smoked in ancient brick ovens over flaming hickory chip embers. Sensational with beer, this hard cheese has an edible, brown rind and a creamy, yellow interior. It can also perfectly complement tasty snacks like fruits, nuts and dark chocolate. It forms a good combination of sandwiches and burgers.
