Tasting Notes:
Gouda cheese is not only a popular cheese in the Netherlands, where Gouda was first made and continues to be a major export for the area, but it is actually one of the world's most popular cheeses.
There are several types of Gouda available, mostly classified by how long the cheese has been aged. There are 7 different varieties, ranging from a Young Gouda, aged only for a few weeks, to extra old, which may be aged for several years.
Medium Gouda Cheese is still on the mild end of the spectrum, it is aged for 3 months. This extra ripening gives the cheese a creamier, stronger flavour than its young counterpart.
Medium Gouda Cheese has a nice creamy, smooth, slightly springy texture, with a mild, sweet, buttery, nutty, and smooth flavour.
