Leerdammer is a semi-hard Dutch cheese made from cow’s milk, known for its characteristic large holes and a sweet, nutty flavor that intensifies with age.

Developed in 1977, it combines elements of Gouda and Emmental cheeses, resulting in a unique taste experience. Leerdammer is versatile, making it suitable for sandwiches, cheese platters, or as a standalone snack. Its distinctive appearance and flavor have made it a favorite among cheese enthusiasts worldwide.
