Cheeseland
| Ewephoria Sheep Gouda, produced in Friesland, Netherlands, is a pasteurized, hard sheep's milk cheese made from East Friesian sheep using washed-curd Gouda technology and microbial vegetarian rennet. It is aged 9–12 months to develop a sweet, crystalline texture with butterscotch, toffee, and whiskey aroma yet contains zero sugar. The unique saline terroir influences mineral content, while East Friesian milk’s high fat and protein yield a rich flavor. Ewephoria is non-PDO, designed for the American palate to balance sweetness and umami, featuring tyrosine crystals and marketed as a gateway sheep cheese with consistent flavor and broad pairings. | |
