Producer Details

+

Fromagerie L'Amuse was founded in Amsterdam in 1989 by Betty Koster and her husband Martin. The couple have built their business into one of the most respected cheese aging operations in the Netherlands by traveling the country and forging direct relationships with small scale Dutch cheesemakers. Finished wheels are matured at slightly higher temperatures than most goudas. The result is Gouda with both crystalline crunch and extraordinary creaminess. Brabander is made from Saanen goat's milk by a co-operative dairy in the Brabant region of southern Holland. Wheels are aged at L'Amuse for six months and those selected for export to the United States are sold exclusively through Essex St. Cheese.

Storage Tips

+

When you receive your cheese, unpack the order right away and refrigerate the items. We recommend using the cheese paper we wrap and ship the cheese in to store your cheese at home. A good place to store the cheese is in the salad drawer of your fridge because the moisture helps to prevent cheese from drying out while also allowing it to breathe. Always bring cheese to room temperature before serving.
