Reypenaer VSOP
From:
$15.32
Reypenaer V.S.O.P. is truly a Dutch gourmet cheese showpiece. Magnificent and well deserved of the V.S.O.P. designation.

Vintage Gouda Aged 5 years
Was $12.89 Sale Price:
$11.60
This Vintage Gouda is aged 5 years and there are not so many Goudas of that age, with a similar miracle of flavor.
The color of this gourmet cheese is deep amber and burnt orange with a texture similar to Parmigiano-Reggiano, very firm and flaky. Its rich flavor and subtle sweetness is intense and complex. It is an excellent substitute for grating cheeses as it caramelizes beautifully; it is even a better cheese with a nice rich red wine or a cool glass of beer.
We cut the very old cheese in 10-oz pieces and most likely the piece will fall apart as you take it out of the package; that's how old and crumbly the cheese is, ready to be eaten. ...
