Beemster XO is a luxurious cheese with rich and complex flavors, aged for 26 months. Made in the Netherlands, it is known for its intense taste and distinctive texture. Due to the long aging process, Beemster XO has a firm, crumbly texture, yet it retains a creamy mouthfeel.
Its color is a deep golden hue, and its flavor profile features complex notes of whiskey, caramel, roasted nuts, and toast, giving it a recognizable character. Additionally, Beemster XO contains small crystals that provide extra crunch, making it even more interesting to enjoy.
This cheese is perfect for true cheese lovers seeking something special. It can be enjoyed in various pairings, such as with dark beer, olives, spiced honey-roasted nuts, or with figs and honey.
