I was there when there was a big tour group around, so an employee came out to give a summary of the process and engage the audience a bit. In the main shop area, you can sample the different Gouda cheeses. Not sure how sanitary they were because it was just left out in the open (self-serve samples). Overall, not a bad stop during my trip.

TOURIST TRAP! But...its also an oh so very delicious cheese…read morefilled mouse trap! I plead guilty, I didn't buy a single thing. And I do feel very guilty about that since I ate several kilos worth of cheese samples. Okay, I'm exaggerating, but I'm pretty sure I ate almost a half kilo of rich, creamy, and glorious Dutch cheeses... I have a whole new level respect for Dutch cheeses. The staff were all very friendly and insisted I continue sampling their many varieties of delicious cubes of Heaven(cheese). There's also an optional lesson in Dutch cheese, taught by a masterful Dutch Cheese Empress. LONG LIVE GOUDA! DOWN WITH BRIE! No...no...I still love brie too..

If I had to choose a flavored cheese, I would choose truffle. However, some of the more interesting flavors here were coconut, asparagus, lavender, beer, and smoked goat cheese. The cheeses surprisingly did taste like their labeled flavors...in a non-weird way too. Many people buy their gift sets. The unique flavors do make great gifts. Just be sure to buy the hard cheeses to carry on for long-haul flights as the soft cheeses would spoil quickly over time.
