Gouda Orient

This delicious organic Gouda is produced in the Netherlands on the Heerlijkheid Marienwaerdt estate. It is refined with cumin, ginger, coriander and chilli. The interplay of herbs and spices gives it its typical oriental note. The cheese’s dough is creamy and tender. The Marienwaerdt estate was founded as a monastery in 1129. It was acquired in 1734 by the Count von Bijlandt, whose descendants now run the estate. Organic farming is the focus of various activities that maintain the estate. In the cheese dairy, their own milk is made into Gouda cheese in its natural state. The higher fat content of the milk makes for a creamy, tasty cheese that has become the estate’s trademark.
