Brabander Goat Gouda

Sweet cream and toasted nuts; Creamy and dense with a smooth finish; Cotton candy notes and fudgy texture, like a toasted marshmallow or a Jersey Shore snack.

The Story

Goat milk is not typically used for producing aged cheeses, or Goudas of any age. But when the affineur is the preeminent Gouda maturer in the world, anything is possible. Betty lets Brabander rest at temperatures higher than normal, which elicits savory notes and a slight gaminess that are not commonly found in Gouda. That is not to say that the expected sweetness and nuttiness are absent, they simply exist in harmony with other flavors in the spectrum.
