Gouda
Gouda was named after the Dutch town of Gouda, just outside Rotterdam. It accounts for
more than 60% of the cheese produced in Holland and it has a very long history. Gouda is a
traditional, creamery, hard cheese. It is round with very smooth, yellow, waxed rind. The
flavor is sweet and fruity. As time passes, the taste intensifies and becomes more
complex. Mature Gouda (18 months plus) is coated in black wax which provides a stark
contrast to the deep yellow interior. Gouda is considered to be one of the world's great
cheeses. It is both a table cheese and a dessert cheese, excellent with fruit and wine.
Gouda is now made globally in a style similar to the creation of Edam.
