Picture of reypenaer xo reserve cheese

Reypenaer XO Reserve is the king of the Reypenaer cheeses. This gourmet cheese matured for an extra long time, for 3 years, in the Reypenaer traditional cheese warehouse, which was built way back in 1906. By setting aside a small selection of Reypenaer cheeses from the best time of the year, Jan and Rien van den Wijngaard have created an incredibly special cheese that is available in only a limited quantity: Reypenaer XO Reserve.

Only the finest, smoothest tasting dairy products are used to make this Reypenaer cheese. All the milk comes from cows that are free to roam outside during the Dutch summer, when the mixture of rain and pleasant temperatures provides the ideal conditions for the growth of lush, green grass.

Reypenaer XO Reserve is one year older than the Reypenaer V.S.O.P. and has a uniquely rich, pure flavor that lingers on the palate. The refined mineral crystals and the creaminess of the cheese lend it its distinctive taste. It is a true sensation.

Reviews
The king of hard cheeses! Sweet on the palate...you won't be able to put this one down! Nibble in small bites...it is rich and crumbles due to firmness and age...great in the evening with a warm fire and glass of wine.
