De Graafstroom 48+ oud is a matured cheese product made by the Dutch dairy company De Graafstroom. As a 48+ cheese, it contains at least 48% fat in dry matter, which contributes to its rich and creamy texture. The term'oud' indicates that the cheese has been aged for a longer period, typically over 10 months, resulting in a deeply savory and intense flavor profile with a robust, firm texture.


The aging process allows the cheese to develop complex nutty and caramel notes, making it a favorite among those who enjoy strong, mature cheeses.
