Rotterdamsche Oude

The Rotterdamsche Oude is aged cheese in its most pronounced form. After a minimum of 100 weeks of aging, this cheese has developed an intensely complex flavor profile: deep, salty, nutty, with a long-lasting finish you won't soon forget. The crumbly texture is dotted with crunchy flavor crystals.

Like the Oude Meije, this cheese belongs to the category of truly aged cheeses, but with its own distinct character and personality. The intensity means small portions go a long way. Serve in thin slices or chunks, on its own or with a subtle sweet accent. This is party cheese at the highest level.

Pairs well with: a glass of tawny port, aged whisky or a barley wine. Serve with fig bread, dried apricots or a drizzle of truffle honey. Compare it with the Oude Meije to discover the nuances, or with the Boerenkaas Overjarig for a raw-milk alternative.
