Beemster Swiss is an alpine style cheese made in Holland by the Beemster master cheesemakers. The cheese features characteristic eyes (holes) that develop as the cheese ages - while the cheese ripens, bubbles form then burst, leaving the eyes throughout the paste.
Mildly tangy and nutty flavor with fruity notes.
The iconic cheese for fondue and Reuben sandwiches. Try switching up a grilled cheese with Beemster Swiss and kimchi.

INGREDIENTS
Pasteurized cow's milk, salt, cheese culture, MICROBIAL rennet. Contains: Milk
