Dutch Cheese Tasting: what to expect?

Did you know that the cheese industry is one of the most important drivers in the economy of the Netherlands?

You'll have heard of Gouda and Edam, but there are countless other varieties of the dairy product that are made in Holland. Discover the most popular typical cheeses of the country, and learn to distinguish the different tastes and textures.

This cheese tasting at Henri Willig's cheese store will make your trip to Amsterdam an experience you'll never forget. You'll try five different types of cheese accompanied by a special condiment to bring out their unique tastes: mustard!

Served with mustard, you'll be enjoying the cheeses just like the locals do! What's more, you'll wash them down with two glasses of wine, or another drink if you'd prefer. The perfect combination!

En general fue una actividad muy entretenida y la degustación fue deliciosa. Queremos destacar el entretenimiento del organizador, el melenas (Quentin), muy enrollado y lo hizo mucho más ameno. La degustación incluía diversos tipos de quesos, bebidas y salsas. Sin embargo, con la gran variedad que ofrecen, podrían haber incluído más tipos de quesos. En general, estamos bastante satisfechos con lo recibido. Translate this opinion into English.

Overall it was a very entertaining activity and the tasting was delicious. We would like to highlight the entertainment provided by the organizer, the long-haired guy (Quentin), who was very cool and made it much more enjoyable. The tasting included various types of cheeses, drinks and sauces. However, with the great variety they offer, they could have included more types of cheese. Overall, we are quite satisfied with what we received. Opinion translated. Show original.

La cata fue super bien! El personal muy simpático y amable, los quesos muy ricos y el ambiente en general muy relajado y agradable. 20€ por probar los distintos quesos, algunos de ellos bastante únicos, más 2 bebidas la verdad es que es una calidad-precio excelente.
