Delicious cheese tasting by the real cheese expert Ron Pieters whom is very knowledgeable about all the cheeses and wines. We were also able to buy all the cheeses in the shop afterwards. Had a great laugh and enjoyable afternoon, thank you Old Amsterdam Cheese Store!
The cheese and wine tasting is highly recommended. The location is top notch and the atmosphere is super cosy.
During this tasting, we were given five different delicious cheeses and wine specially selected for this purpose. The information we received was new and informative.
Located a few minutes from Central Station where we were warmly welcomed by the staff at the Old Amsterdam Cheese Store. They took us through the different cheeses accompanied by a suitable selection of wines. The tasting room above the shop which was quiet, relaxed and we did not feel rushed at all. We can definitely recommend this to anyone who appreciates cheese and is interested in the history and making of cheese.
Attended a tasting with friends. Very cosy and casual atmosphere. Lots of information about Gouda cheese and, of course, the delicious tasting. Nice staff who took care of the tasting. Highly recommended!
