Old Cheese

Old cheese is a typically Dutch cheese that the Dutch often put on bread during lunch or breakfast. Old cheese has a full flavor and, as the name suggests, is aged longer than other cheeses. This way of making cheese is not common abroad; you will therefore only find Dutch old cheese in Dutch supermarkets.

Old Amsterdam Cheese

One of the best-known old cheese brands is Old Amsterdam cheese. This old cheese naturally comes from Amsterdam. The old cheese from Old Amsterdam has a somewhat sweeter taste than other cheeses. This is due to the various herbs used in it.

Old Beemster Cheese

Another well-known brand that sells old cheese is Beemster cheese. This is made in the Beemster region and is entirely local. Aged for 12+ months, this old cheese is one of the most popular old cheeses in the Netherlands.
