Goat's cheese, also known as chevre, is a tasty cheese made from goat's milk. It has a unique flavor that can range from tangy to creamy, depending on how long it's aged.
This cheese comes in different forms: soft, semi-soft, and hard. Soft goat's cheese is spreadable and great for dips, salads, or as a topping for crackers. You can slice semi-soft goat's cheese for sandwiches or use it on pizza. Hard goat's cheese is aged and can be grated like Parmesan.
Many people prefer goat's cheese because it's lower in fat and calories but higher in protein compared to cow's milk cheese. It's also a good source of calcium, vitamin D, and other nutrients.
Now, let's talk about the Old Amsterdam Goat cheese. It's been aged for a year, making it a hard goat's cheese. This cheese has a firm texture, a deep golden color, and a delicious nutty, caramel-like flavor. People often describe it as having a rich and complex taste that's both tangy and sweet, with hints of grassiness and earthiness.
You can use Old Amsterdam Goat cheese in many ways. It's great for cheese boards, sandwiches, salads, and cooking because it adds a unique depth of flavor to any dish. It pairs wonderfully with fruits, nuts, herbs, and honey, making it a versatile addition to your culinary adventures.

Instructions Upon Arrival:
If you plan on keeping your cheese for a longer time, please vacuum seal it again once the cheese has arrived. Otherwise, we recommend keeping the cheese in tight plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. Sometimes the cheese might be a little softer and start "sweating." If this happens, please put the cheese back in the fridge and it will become harder again. This won't affect the taste or quality of the cheese.
