One that divides opinion amongst our friends...I love it!
We came across this cheese after trying Gouda Cheese Shop Cantenaar 30 + Cheese - Vermeer Cheese - Best cheese in the world 2012! and really enjoying it. This aged gouda is up there with the best cheeses I've ever tasted, in fact I may even go as far as saying it's my personal favourite, it's either this or a similar cheese called Roomano (not Romano) we have whenever we're in New York.Although I love this cheese (as does my wife), a few of our friends are not as keen. The cheese certainly does have a very strong flavour, not tangy like a blue, nor pungent like a washed rind soft cheese, more just an intense, butterscotch, caramel, salty flavour...my mouth is watering at the thought!The cheese is a similar hardness to something like a Parmigiano Reggiano, but it breaks up into shards as though it is made of layers (imagine a piece of slate). As you bite into a piece you notice the tiny protein crystals throughout the cheese giving a satisfying crunch.Before ordering I was apprehensive about getting cheese delivered through the post, however the nature of these kinds of cheese means they travel perfectly fine.If you're a real cheese fan who likes their cheese full of flavour but want to try something a little bit different then I would highly recommend this cheese, however if you're more a fan of a milder cheese then this might not be for you.

Beautiful cheese
This cheese did not disappoint.The flavour was wonderful. My only sadness was obviously the total price including shipping which will sadly determine how often I can have this lovely treat.I ordered this product online because I found out that cheese over two years old contains almost no lactose (sadly have become intolerant recently) and I have enjoyed the older cheese from Holland in years past. It is often not possible to age cheeses in the supermarket and even when it is they mostly are not over 2 years in age.

Very Poor Quality
This is nothing like the old Gouda cheese I was hoping for.Note that 30+ refers to the fat content, not the age.
