Oude Edammer – 1 Year Aged
Bold, nutty, and authentically Dutch. Traditional Edam cheese, naturally ripened for 12 months to develop its firm texture and complex flavor.
Crafted in Holland, this Oude Edammer matures for one full year, allowing the cheese to breathe through its natural rind. The result is a firm, sliceable cheese with tiny crystals, a rich nutty taste, and a sharp finish. A heritage cheese that embodies centuries of Dutch cheesemaking tradition.
