Craxi green pesto cheese.
Raw milk green pesto farm cheese.
Dutch farm Gouda (48+) is made from fresh, raw milk, which guarantees the full, rich flavour of the cheese. The addition of green pesto (basil, pepper, garlic, oregano leaf, paprika) gives this cheese a special and pronounced taste.
At the cheese farm, we make this delicious small herb cheese in two different sizes: a mini size weighing ±500 gr. and the so-called baby version weighing ±1000 gr.
Both small versions (mini & baby cheese wheel) can be ordered online via the Craxi webshop but are also available in our cheese shop in Malaga, Spain.
Mini gouda cheese wheel price per piece € 9,60.

The food colouring used in green pesto cheese from a cheese factory.
You have probably noticed that our cheese has a green coating only on the outside and the cheese itself is not coloured. The reason is that we do not use food colours in our artisan cheeses.
Does the addition of a food colouring have any effect on the flavour of the cheese? No, the colouring is only added to make the cheese more visually appealing to consumers, giving them the impression that the cheese is “well-filled” with pesto.
With many factory cheese brands, green pesto cheese is available in the most “remarkable” shades of green. The food colouring used in factory-made cheese to make the cheese green is Chlorophyllin E-141.

Just eat real cheese, not because we say so, but because it’s just so much tastier than factory cheese!

No, we do not use colourings in our Craxi farm cheese. In terms of taste, adding colourings to cheese has no effect whatsoever. Adding colourings to cheese is purely cosmetic to make the cheese more visually appealing to consumers, giving the impression that the cheese in this case is “well-filled” with green pesto.
