Benning Goat Gouda
Goat Gouda from the Netherlands, a pasteurized goat-milk wheel made in the Gouda style and aged until it gets that signature crystalline crunch. The goat-milk version of the OG Crystal you may have seen at the counter, dressed in a thick wax rind that needs a little elbow grease to crack open.
The paste is firm and dense, breaking into clean shards under the knife with little crunchy spots where the aging has done its work. On the palate it opens with a really sharp, tangy goat-milk pull on the front of the tongue, then rolls into that caramelized, butterscotch-leaning sweetness that long-aged Goudas are famous for. A faint peppery lift on the back keeps it from going one-note.
Goat milk doesn't usually carry this far into the aged-Gouda territory, which is what makes this one a worth-tasting bottle of a cheese. Right in the sweet spot where the lactic goaty tang meets aged-Gouda caramel.
