Boerenkaas Extra Overjarig 18 months
The Schrama family farm dates back to 1912 when Jacobus Van der Poel started breeding cows and making cheese directly on the farm. In 1956, his son Joap van der Poel took over the farm, and in 1964, he started producing Gouda cheese on a daily basis. In 1993, Paul Schrama married Joap’s daughter Ellen, and moved in with them to take over the farm. Today Ellen and Paul have a herd of 200 dairy cows. These cows have access to the great outdoors, and are free to come and go as they please. Paul and Ellen’s farm is located in the
"Green Heart" of Holland, a region particularly famous for its vast and lush green pastures. Every day, Paul and Ellen work side by side, producing Gouda cheese from raw farm milk matured for a very long time in their cellar. We have selected a Gouda that has been matured for at least 18 months, and has a deep yellow colour verging on orange. The cheese is hard and almost crumbly, but incomparably rich on the palate. It boasts hints of roasted dried nuts, and a touch of caramel.

We recommend the following quantities per person:
For an after dinner cheese board, 30g to 50g per cheese per person is generally enough and should not leave you with much leftover. If you are planning to have a big table and / or want some cheese to be carried over a few days ,we recommend 80 to 100g of cheese per person.
The number of cheeses is up too you (i say the more the better!) but to achieve a good selection from textures, Strenghs & different milks, 4 to 6 cheeses are recommended.
