Beemster DOP
Beemster PDO cheese is a truly premium Dutch delicacy, made with delicious, creamy milk from the Beemster polder. This choice of raw material contributes significantly to the creation of an excellent cheese. The Beemster polder, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, adds further value, giving Beemster PDO cheese its distinctive character.
It is raised in our cellars until it has matured for over 26 months.
