Update to my last post and the couple new Gouda cheeses I got the other day. Tried the 12pm the Rembrandt Gouda and I have to say………..really not impressed. Has such a strong tangy Merlot wine taste that overpowers the Gouda taste, similar to the merlot taste in the bellavitano but not as bad overall. I had higher expectations for the Rembrandt, which also was not cheap. 15$ for that piece. Very underwhelming. In my experience thus far, the Target branded good and gather Beemster Gouda still reigns supreme.
Rembrandt 5/10
Beemster royaal 7/10
Target Beemster 8.9/10
Next in line is the Beemster classic 18month Gouda. Will it conquer the target one ?? Also what picks should I try next?
Beemster vlaskaas
Beemster hatch pepper
Marieke- golden
smoked cumin
Holy trinity
Foenegreek
Summer fields
Truffle
Cypress grove
Primadonna

Try Signature Gouda made by L’amuse.
I like them both. They really both need honey to add some sweetness. Haven’t tried the royal.
Say cheese!
Damn! Rembrandt is one of my favorites. If you haven’t tried prima Donna yet I highly recommend that one
which type of gouda is that ? according to qcheese.com there are at least 12 different type
Artikaas! Specifically vintage lot 18 month or any from the Vintage Lot line
Beemster 24 month XO. Try it!!
I just got 4 of these for $1 each today!
I’ve had so many wedges of Rembrandt. One can easily be lunch if I can’t find anything else.
