Hey, hey, Reypenaer


Hello, best cheese I've ever had in my life.

Let's revisit my March trip to Amsterdam so I may introduce to you this spectacular dairy delight:

Reypenaer (yea, I don't know how to pronounce it either), a sharp Dutch cheese similar in texture to Parmesan that's a bit nutty and gritty (like me) and that only gets better and tangier with age (also like me!). Emmy + Reypenaer = soulmatez 4eva.




Upon climbing out of the hash cloud encapsulating the city, I was motived to do further research about this indulgent wonder, only to find that it won the prize of Supreme Champion of the International Nantwich Cheese Show in the UK last year. Cool! It also snagged previous victories in 2007 and 2005.

I was lucky enough to sample Reypenaer in its various aged states at a lovely little cheese shop with a knack for presentation skills and a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Check out Le Guillotin, a handy cutting board with a knife that can be adjusted with a clamp as to provide the cheese width you desire with ease. These quaint devices were also sold at the shop, and were so fun to use that, coupled with my innate human garbage-disposal abilities, I ended up nearly clearing the shop of their sampling cheeses.
