Everything You Need to Know About Buying a Whole Wheel of Artisanal Dutch Gouda Cheese.

If you’re on the hunt for an whole wheel of artisanal Gouda cheese, you’re in for a treat. Whether you’re hosting a party, stocking up for a culinary adventure, or for yourself, family and friends, buying Gouda cheese in bulk can be a flavorful and cost-effective choice. At Craxi Queso, we’re here to guide you through the process of finding the perfect wheel of Gouda cheese, how to buy it, and how to make the most of your cheesy investment.

First of all, what you need to know about Gouda cheese!

To keep it simple and this is a bit of a shortcut, but because a lot of people don’t know this, we make a first crucial distinction between 2 different types of Gouda cheese:

  1. Mass-produced industrial Gouda cheese: Industrial producers make Gouda with pasteurized milk. Since the name “Gouda cheese” lacks protection, you might believe you are purchasing Gouda from Holland. However, as previously mentioned, the name is not protected. This means that even if the label features windmills or the word “Holland,” the cheese could just as easily come from a South American country or Poland!
  2. The real stuff Artisanal Dutch Gouda Cheese: Our artisanal raw milk Gouda cheese ensures unparalleled quality and flavor by being crafted in small batches, unlike mass-produced industrial Gouda cheeses. Cheese farmers in the Netherlands produce this traditional Gouda using centuries-old techniques, following Dutch cheese-making traditions that define authentic Dutch Gouda.

The Authentic Dutch Gouda Cheese.

The type of Gouda cheese we offer in Spain is a Dutch Gouda cheese made largely by hand from raw milk. The designation has been protected by the European Union since 2007 as a guaranteed traditional speciality. Only Dutch Gouda cheese made on a cheese farm using traditional and controlled methods may be sold as artisanal Gouda cheese.

Craxi Dutch Gouda farmer's cheese is a Guaranteed Traditional Speciality (TSG)

In Spain we carry only authentic, high-quality Gouda cheese and focus on quality and authenticity, ensuring you get the real deal straight from the dutch cheese farm on your table! In close cooperation with a number of Dutch cheese farmers, we import the best authentic Gouda cheese wheels into Spain. You can purchase whole natural Gouda cheese wheels with a maturation periods of 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 36 months.

What is the approximate weight of a whole large cheese.

The ripening time determines the weight of the cheese. Skilled artisans handcraft the large cheeses, resulting in variations between pieces. On average, our young Gouda cheese wheels weighs about 16 kilos, while our 3-year-old Gouda cheese typically weighs around 14.5 kilos.

Can you also cut the cheese wheel into wedges for me?

Yes, we are happy to do that for you. On request we will cut your Gouda cheese wheel into approximately 1 kilo pieces and vacuum-seal each piece. In the vacuum packaging, the pieces can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 months. If you open the vacuum, you can pack the cheese in cheese paper, which we supply and is added. In the cheese paper, the cheese can be kept in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.

How will you deliver my cheese?

We will ship your Gouda cheese wheel from our location in Malaga using refrigerated transport directly to your doorstep on the Spanish Peninsula or mainland Portugal.

Smoked Gouda Cheese Made from Raw Cow’s Milk.

Gouda farmer’s cheese is one of the most prized culinary treasures of the Netherlands, known for its soft and creamy flavor. When this cheese is made by hand from raw cow’s milk and cold smoked at the cheese farm, it becomes a delicacy for cheese lovers of smoked cheeses.

Smoked Gouda cheese is an artisanal cheese that has undergone a smoking process to add a distinctive smokey flavour and aroma. Handcrafted on the Dutch farm, this cheese is produced using traditional methods that have been perfected over generations. When raw cow’s milk is used, the cheese retains the rich flavours and complexity of unpasteurised milk.

Price smoked Gouda (VAT included)€ 22.60 /Kg

How to smoke cheese

The cold smoking process.

Cold smoking involves generating smoke in an external heat source. Only the smoke is led to a separate smoking chamber, where the cheese is located. Cold smoking is a technique that adds a unique flavour to cheese without altering its internal structure. Unlike hot smoking, which uses high temperatures, cold smoking maintains temperatures below 30°C (86°F), ensuring the cheese doesn’t melt or cook during the smoking process.

Cold smoking steps:

  1. Preparation: To prepare the cheese to absorb the smoke, you keep it at room temperature for a few hours. It must be completely dry before the smoking process begins.
  2. Wood Selection: The type of wood used is crucial to the final flavor of the cheese. Hardwoods such as hickory, apple or cherry are popular choices because they provide a smooth and complex flavor.
  3. Smoke Generation: An external heat source generates smoke without raising the temperature of the smoking space, and the smoke is channeled into the chamber containing the cheese.
  4. Smoking: The cheese undergoes exposure to smoke for several hours, depending on the desired level of smoky flavor. This process can take from 4 to 24 hours.

Is the cheese edible immediately after the smoking process?

No, after smoking the cheese needs to rest. The cheese rests for a few days in a cool, dry environment so that the flavors can settle and fully integrate.

What are the best woods for cold smoking cheese:

  • Applewood
  • Maple wood
  • Cherry wood
  • Hickory wood

Wood types with a lot of resin, such as coniferous wood, are not recommended because they also develop less pleasant aromas.

Dishes to pair with smoked Gouda cheese

Smoked Gouda cheese is extremely versatile and can elevate a wide variety of dishes:

  • Cheese boards: Paired with dried fruit, nuts, and honey, smoked Gouda is ideal for a gourmet cheese board.
  • Sandwiches and burgers: Its smoky flavor perfectly complements grilled or roasted meats.
  • Pasta and gratins: Grate smoked Gouda over pasta or gratins to add an extra layer of flavor.
  • Soups and creams: Adding smoked Gouda to a pumpkin soup or French onion soup can transform the dish.
  • Fondue: Melted smoked Gouda is a delicious choice for a fondue accompanied by crusty bread and fresh vegetables

Dutch Cheese – A Culinary Treasure from the Dutch Cheese Farm

Artisan Dutch cheese.

Dutch Cheese: Classic Dutch Gouda cheese made on the cheese farm.

Cheese farms in the Netherlands still make Traditional Dutch Gouda cheese on a small scale. Artisan Gouda, known for its flavor and quality, is one of the most characteristic gastronomic products of Holland. Made on the picturesque cheese farms of the Netherlands, this cheese represents a rich culinary heritage dating back centuries.

More and more people are discovering the difference in taste between industrially made Gouda made from pasturized milk and the Gouda made on the farm. The cheese farm continues the tradition, allowing you to enjoy the authentic flavor of Dutch Gouda cheese.

How do you order our Gouda cheese in Spain?

The cheese is on sale in our stores in Malaga and can be ordered online through the web store.

Our Cheese shop locations in Malaga city where you can taste our artisanal Dutch Gouda cheese are:

Raw Milk: The Soul of Traditional Dutch Gouda Cheese

The true essence of Dutch Gouda cheese lies in its main ingredient: raw cow’s milk. This unpasteurized and unprocessed milk comes from cows fed on fresh grass from the fertile Dutch lands. Raw milk retains all of its natural enzymes and bacteria, which helps develop a genuine flavor and unique nutritional profile in the cheese. Unlike pasteurized milk, raw milk provides a complexity of flavors and aromas that faithfully reflect the terroir of the cheese farms.

Artisanal Gouda Cheese Production: A Manual and Traditional Process

Artisan cheese makers pass on the art of making authentic Gouda cheese from generation to generation. The process starts with milking the farm’s own cows. They then bring the raw cow’s milk to the cheese production area and apply strict hygiene standards. In the production area they gently heat the milk and add natural rennet to help the milk coagulate. Once the curd is formed, they cut it into small pieces to release the whey.

The next step is washing the curd, where hot water is added to remove part of the whey and adjust the acidity. This process, characteristic of Gouda cheese, contributes to its smooth and creamy texture. Once the curd is washed, it is placed in molds and pressed to remove excess liquid. The cheeses are then soaked in brine, which helps preserve them.

Maturation: The Key to Classic Flavor

After the brine bath, the maturation process begins, ranging from a few weeks to several years. During this time, the farmer stores the cheeses in ripening chambers with controlled temperature and humidity conditions. The younger cheeses, known as soft Gouda, have a mild flavor and soft texture. As the cheese ages, its flavor intensifies and its texture becomes firmer and more crumbly, giving rise to varieties of semi-cured, cured, old and extra old Gouda.

The True Taste of Dutch Gouda Cheese

The taste of authentic Gouda cheese is a symphony of sweet, salty and nutty notes, which intertwine to create a unique culinary experience. Each bite takes you on a sensory journey through the green Dutch meadows, showcasing the dedication and love put into making each piece. This genuine, true flavor is what has made Gouda cheese a favorite around the world.
