Frequently Asked Questions
How do you package the herb cheese?
Upon receipt of the order, we cut the cheese to the correct size. We then vacuum pack it at all times to guarantee the quality and taste experience.
What does thermised mean?
Thermized cheese is briefly heated to approximately 60°C instead of 72°C for pasteurization. This is a nice middle ground between raw milk and pasteurized milk production - and is done to preserve the flavor as much as possible.
Where do the herb cheeses come from?
The herb cheeses mostly come from the Groene Hart around Stolwijk.
Are the herb cheeses lactose- and gluten-free?
The cheeses may contain traces of gluten and are not lactose-free. Contact us for more information.
