2022

Boerenkaas oud by Zijerveld is a type of traditional Dutch farmhouse cheese, known for its rich and robust flavor. This cheese is aged for an extended period, typically over a year, which helps develop its deeply savory and slightly tangy profile.


The aging process also contributes to a firm and crumbly texture, with small salt crystals that add a delightful crunch. Boerenkaas oud is made from raw cow's milk, keeping true to the traditional methods passed down through generations. This craft signifies a commitment to quality and authenticity, highlighting Zijerveld's expertise in cheesemaking.


This cheese is ideal for enjoying on its own or paired with wines, beers, and a variety of gourmet accompaniments.
