The Netherlands is the no. 1 dream destination of every cheese lover, and the list of different varieties you should try once you’re there is pretty much endless. We’re bringing you four mouth-watering options you shouldn’t miss for the world.
Gouda
Gouda is one of the most popular types of cheese in the world and you can find it pretty much anywhere, but there’s something special about trying it in the country where it originated from.
Edam
Edam is Holland’s second most beloved cheese, and you’ll fall in love with its mellow and salty taste.
Maasdam
Maasdam is the closest thing you’ll get to those cheeses you liked seeing in cartoons when you were a kid, since it comes with large holes and a smooth yellow rind.
Leyden
If you’re in the mood for trying something a little bit different, this cheese comes with cumin and caraway seeds and can be preserved longer than other varieties thanks to its dry and low-fat nature.
