Komijnekaas 48+ Aged: powerful, spicy and full of character
Komijnekaas 48+ Aged is a traditional Dutch Gouda cheese with cumin, which ages for approximately 12 months in the warehouse. During this long aging process, the cheese has time to develop real character: firm, dry and intense in flavor.
Aging in the warehouse
While the cheese rests in the warehouse for a year, the real work happens. The moisture slowly evaporates, making the cheese harder and more concentrated. The cumin seeds soak further into the cheese and become increasingly prominent.
The result is a real aged cumin cheese with bite and depth.

This aged cumin cheese is:
-
firm and slightly crumbly

Why choose aged?
Because this is the most pronounced version: 12 months of aging in the warehouse ensures maximum flavor, a firm bite and a powerful cumin experience. A cheese for those who love real character.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much cheese do I need per person?
For drinks or as a starter, allow about 50 to 75 grams of cheese per person. If the cheese board is the main course, allow around 150 to 200 grams per person. Combine different types, such as a soft, a firm, and a distinctive cheese, for a varied board.
How do I store the cheese best?
Refrigerate the cheese immediately upon receipt, preferably in the vegetable drawer, where it is slightly less cold. As long as the vacuum packaging remains sealed, the cheese will keep until the date on the packaging. After opening, it is best to store it in cheese paper or a cheese box, so that it can breathe and does not dry out.
How do I serve cheese at its best?
Take the cheese out of the refrigerator about 30 to 60 minutes before serving. Its flavor and aroma are fully appreciated at room temperature. Only cut what you need; the rest will stay fresh longer this way.
Can I send cheese as a gift?
Certainly! Cheese is a delicious gift for any occasion. You can add a card with a personal message to the shopping cart (€1.95), so the recipient knows right away who it is from.
