Jake's Aged Gouda matures for a full 12 months, undergoing a gradual metamorphosis. The result is a sharp and salty cheese with bold, assertive flavor. A cheese for the true fromage lovers, be sure to add this to your next cheese or charcuterie board. Crafting exceptional Gouda requires a blend of art and science, and Jake's Aged Gouda exemplifies the craftsmanship synonymous with this Dutch classic. The cheesemakers at Jake's infuse their expertise into every wheel, ensuring that each bite is a testament to the precision and dedication they invest into the cheese-making process. Traditional Gouda needs to breathe, so at Jake's, their wheels are turned daily on pine planks. This step ensures uniformity in flavor and aging. Made from raw milk, this Aged Gouda promises all the full flavors of unadulterated or heat treated cheeses, which lose some of their personality in the pasteurization process. Sourced from their own family farm, you can be sure that the milk is of the highest quality, bursting with creamy, full bodied flavor! Jake's Aged Gouda transcends the boundaries of the cheeseboard, lending its exquisite flavor to a myriad of culinary creations. Whether grated over pasta, melted in a gourmet sandwich, or savored alongside fruits and nuts, this aged cheese elevates every dish. Try this cheese with a bold red like a French Bordeaux or a Cabernet Franc to really make the flavors sing.
