Buy Ons Genot Cheese | Creamy 50+ Dutch Cheese
Ons Genot is a creamy 50+ North Holland cheese with a rich, full flavor and a slightly sweet, fruity note. Ideal for anyone who enjoys a distinctive yet accessible Dutch cheese for bread, drinks, or hot dishes.
What is Ons Genot?
Ons Genot is made in small batches by Klaver Kaas in Winkel (North Holland), using milk from around 300 cows grazing on 150 hectares of grassland. Propolis extract is used in the production, giving the cheese its slightly sweet and fruity flavor.
Aged for 6 months
Ons Genot is aged for around 6 months in the Treur Kaas warehouse in Woerden. This is when its flavor is at its best. After aging, the cheese develops a red rind.

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.
