Reypenaer
| Reypenaer Aged 1 Year Gouda is a Dutch Gouda cheese from Woerden, Utrecht, made with pasteurized Holstein-Friesian summer milk following strict PGI Gouda Holland standards. It is traditionally ripened for 12 months in a historic 1906 warehouse by the Old Rhine, using animal rennet. The cheese has 30-35% moisture, 48% fat in dry matter, developing a dense, crystalline texture from tyrosine crystals. Its flavor is intense, nutty, salty-sweet with fruity and woody notes. Paired well with oaked Chardonnay, Merlot, and Port, it’s artisanal, semi-hard, and distinguished by manual affinage and natural maturation. | |
