FrieslandCampina, Paramus N.J., a producer of Gouda and Dutch cheese and one the largest US importers of Specialty Cheeses, will showcase its diverse cheese brands from the Netherlands, UK, Denmark, Australia, Ireland and other countries at the Winter Fancy Food Show January 19-21 in San Francisco.

A DUTCH MASTERPIECE

Attendees can discover new packaging with an updated look and feel of the award winning cheese. Visitors will be able to taste the classic and unique A Dutch Masterpiece, a collection of four premium mature cheeses that have won excellence awards around the world thanks to exclusive recipes and commitment to the art of traditional Dutch cheesemaking.

Vincent: Where Gouda Meets Parmesan, this rich sweet tasting fully ripened Dutch Cheese releases pleasant characteristic bursts of flavor with every bite.

Vermeer: Traditionally ripened for six months this award-winning aged Dutch Gouda cheese has a delicate fruity taste with a delightful flavor. Vermeer contains less fat less salt than classic Gouda Cheeses. 

Each cheese in the range is made from the best milk of our dairy farmers and has its own unique recipe and ripening process. This results in a distinctive and refined texture taste and flavor. The Dutch Masterpiece family has won many international awards both with the Rembrandt (2004) and the Vermeer (2012) voted best cheese in the world at the World Championship Contest in the USA.
