Artikaas 18 Month Gouda, a Dutch cheese crafted from cow’s milk, matures over 18 months to develop a firm texture with crunchy crystals, deep ochre color, and flavors reminiscent of toasted walnuts and brown butter. Versatile and ideal for snacking, melting, or on a cheese board, it pairs beautifully with amber ale. Celebrated for its excellence, it secured first runner-up at the 2024 World Cheese Championship in the Extra Aged Gouda category, and previously second place in 2020. Artikaas Gouda is a true testament to Dutch cheesemaking tradition and excellence.
