Karikaas Cheeses

All Karikaas cheeses are hand-made in the traditional European way using cows milk. Unlike many other cheeses, Karikaas cheese is free of any unnatural products and additives making it an ideal compliment to a balanced diet and to enjoy with an excellent range of wines.

The Karikaas range includes Low Fat Kwark (Quark), Buttermilk, Edam Cheese and Acidophilus Yoghurt. Cheese varieties include Gouda, Edam, Leyden, Maasdam, Feta, Marinated Feta, Pepper, Friesian Cloves, Garlic, Pepper, Herb - in a selection of vintages and ages.

Matured on white pine shelves, the cheese is coated with wax to enable it to breathe. This way the natural process of maturing is not restricted. The cheese is turned several times a week and matured anywhere between three months and two years. Supreme aged vintage cheese takes two years. Like wine, cheese improves with age.
