When
walking in Amsterdam, enjoying the views of the canals and houses, I
found this nice cheese shop from Reypenaar. Their cheese is really
delicious. We brought it once to our friends in Malaysia and they loved
it too. In the shop you can taste the cheese before buying it. They have
these small cheese guillotines which you can use to cut some cheese for
tasting. When you buy the cheese it is all packed for travel. So it
will be no problem to bring it back home, even if you live on the other
side of the world.
The
historic ripening process of the Reypenaer cheeses is unique in the
Netherlands. In the 100-year-old warehouse on the Oude Rijn river in
Woerden, the Reypenaer cheeses are matured in an entirely natural way.
Over time, this process leads to the distinctive and complex taste with
its exceptional aroma that characterises these artisan cheeses.
