Kaamps Estate Maple Syrup Whiskey Gouda Cheese

This one is special. Special in flavor and ingredients, as the cheese curds are washed in Maple Syrup Whiskey; a whiskey that contains maple syrup. That washing gives the gouda cheese a somewhat woody character with a sweet undertone. This cheese is sold under the brand name 'Boer 'n Trots' which translates into Farmer's Pride and the Nijland family who inherited the Kaamps Estate, is indeed proud of their cheese and their farm; a modern diary farm where everything revolves around the quality of the milk and caring for the cows. The beautiful Kaamps Estate is located in the eastern part of Holland, not far from the German border and is more than 100 years old.
