Aged perfection
A delightfully nutty aged gouda that is a persistent favorite. L'amuse gouda is always a part of our best cheese boards and its creamy-yet-crunchy texture is a delight.
Sweet caramel layered with toasted nuttiness; Firm-but-creamy paste spotted with casein crunch; The reigning queen of aged Gouda, to which all others simply bow.
Country of Origin: Holland
Milk Type/Treatment: Pasteurized Cow
Rennet Type: Traditional
Exhibiting all of the crunch, bite and saltiness you expect from aged Gouda, but with a slightly creamier mouthfeel. Roasted hazelnuts and caramel abound, with a lingering, complex finish.
Developed and matured by Betty Koster and her husband Martin. Together, they are the unofficial ambassadors for real Dutch cheese. Betty opts to mature this cheese at a higher temperature than normal, which helps keeps the moisture locked in the cheese, resulting in an unusually creamy paste for an aged Gouda.
Think bold reds like Bordeaux or Côtes du Rhône, or sweeter dessert options like Port. Stunning with dark, malty beers like chocolate stouts or porter. Either way, make sure you pair it with Black Lava Cashews.

I ordered a cheese that I haven't had in years. I've been searching for it for quite a while. It was as delicious as I remembered. I was very impressed with how quickly it arrived and how well packed it was. I will be ordering again from you!
This is not your everyday Gouda. It has a nice salt taste that gives the cheese more body. It makes it richer tasting to me. Definate new addition to cheese and meat plate.
This is one of the best goudas I have ever tasted! We regularly bought it for special occasions when we were living in Philadelphia. Very glad it can be shipped since we moved south!
Love this cheese. My wife and I both are completely addicted to it. It's by far the best we've ever tasted. Such a unique flavor and just melts in your mouth. We will certainly be ordering this again!
The way this cheese goes with the black lava nuts is ridiculous the two flavors absolutely complement each other
This is the best Gouda cheese you can buy. Hints of toffee, butterscotch, awesome!
For people who are not traditional gouda lovers the aged gouda is a totally different beast. Definitely worth a taste, a devour.
I went to Di Bruno's yesterday at the Italian Market location for the first time and the one employee offered us a sample of this. I LOVE the little bit of crunchy texture. It really does melt in your mouth like a butterscotch candy. Not too sweet though. I highly recommend this Gouda. I must go back for more!
