Old cheese

Old cheese

Old cheese has a maturation period of at least 12 months. Each type of cheese has its own maturation period, which ensures that the cheese develops its flavour. The older the cheese gets, the more moisture it loses and therefore becomes increasingly spicy. Aged cheese has a wonderfully strong and full flavour.

When is cheese old?

Old cheese has had at least 12 months to mature and this is easy to taste. The longer maturation time causes the cheese to lose its moisture and therefore taste drier and spicier. Consequently, aged cheese crumbles a bit more than young cheese, which also makes this cheese so characteristic and tasty.

Old cheese ripened naturally

All our aged cheeses are naturally matured on wooden boards. At a young age, we take the cheese from the farmer and continue maturing it in a controlled atmosphere until it has the right age and taste.

When the cheese has matured sufficiently, it is full-bodied, tangy and still easy to slice. Aged cheese can be recognised by its robust and full flavour. Spread a thick slice of farmhouse bread with old cheese or have a nice block of cheese in the evening with a good glass of red wine.

Fat percentage old cheese

The loss of moisture during ripening also results in a slightly higher fat percentage than young cheese. This is because the fat in cheese is only in the dry matter; as the moisture slowly disappears from the cheese, it becomes relatively slightly fatter.

Old cheese healthy

So although old cheese is slightly less healthy than young cheese, all these properties ensure that old cheese is a lot tastier than young cheese. It is not for nothing that old cheese tastes best with drinks and on sandwiches!
