Handmade Gouda

Original hand made farmer cheese from Gouda

At Dutch Design Cheese we believe in quality and good taste. That’s why all our cheese is made by farmer house Jongenhoeve in Bergambacht a small village under Gouda. They make by hand the famous Dutch farmer cheese. Their cheese has won a Cum Laude Award, which means their cheese belongs to the 25th best testing farmer cheeses in Holland.

Their cows graze in summer in the green grass of the Krimpenerwaard. In winter, the cows eat also grass, that is preserved in summer. Of that delicious grass, the cows give twice a day delicious milk, of which the Gouda Farmers-cheese is made.

For Dutch Design Cheese we use the very tastefull baby cheeses of 0,8 kg and 5,5 inch diameter or the 0,5 kg and 3,9 inch diameter.

If you would like to know more about this cheese farm or if you want to visit this farm for an excursion on how they make the cheese  watch on their website: Jongenhoeve.

Visit Holland
If you ever make plans to visit Holland, you have to make a tour through this most beautiful part of Holland, the Krimpenerwaard. This is the real Dutch thing! With dikes, mills and small roads. Combine it with a tour to Schoonhoven ‘silver city’ and the Vlist where famous Dutch ice skaters were born. 

For more touristic information of this part of Holland, look on: Krimpenerwaard.
