Ziegengouda, pikant

This delicious organic goat gouda is produced in the Netherlands on the Heerlijkheid Marienwaerdt estate. The cheese has a fine, piquant and slightly sweet taste. It goes very well with Mediterranean salads and delicious tapas dishes. The Marienwaerdt estate was founded in 1129 as a monastery. 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.
