Old Farmdal was created by the Deweer family as a younger counterpart to their well-known OG Kristal Gouda. Using the same milk and core process, they adjusted the cultures to develop a similar depth of flavor in less time. It’s aged about half as long but still delivers those crunchy crystals and layered sweetness, making it a great “in-between” Gouda.
