Edam Holland PDO

Netherlands – entire territory excluding the Wadden Islands

Intensity
Creaminess

Iconic semi-hard cheese with a supple, elastic paste and clean lactic aroma. Light almond sweetness and subtle buttery finish; older wheels develop nutmeg and toasted cereal notes. Made from partially skimmed cow's milk from across the Netherlands.

Perfect pairings

Best enjoyed with Kölsch or pilsner beers, grüner veltliner, mustard pickles, and seeded breads.

Chef's tip: Classic for sandwiches and cheese boards. Pair with grapes and a crisp white for the perfect appetizer.
