Dutch Gouda - made in Holland
Gouda from Dutch: Goudse kaas "Cheese from Gouda"is a yellow cheese made from cow's milk. The cheese is named after the city of Gouda in the Netherlands, but its name is not protected. Gouda cheese is made and sold all around the world.
The term "Gouda" is now a universal name, and not restricted to cheese of Dutch origin.
Within the Netherlands itself, a number of varieties exist, based on age. From young to old. The older the cheese, the harder and saltier it gets. The younger, the creamier.
