Treur, The Dutch Cheese Experience! E.M. Treur en Zn. BV is located in Woerden, right in the heart of Dutch cheese making country. Treur was founded by Mr. E.M. Treur in 1955 and is a real family business. Over more than 55 years, Treur has become a specialist in the ageing and care of Dutch Gouda cheese. Currently the company is guided by the second generation Treur, Daan and René Treur, two brothers.

Treur can provide in the following cheese specialties:

- Dutch Gouda (organic) cheeses - Sheep’s cheeses - Farmhouse cheeses - International cheeses - (Organic) Goat’s cheeses - Additonal product range: Tapas and Wines

With its own climate-controlled cheese warehouse and cellars, Treur supplies quality cheese by carefully monitoring its quality chain. The company is IFS Higher Level, BRC Food and Safety, BRC Storage and Distribution, COKZ Process and Skal certified. The warehouse can store 1,000,000 kg cheese on 34km of wooden shelves, and has a constant temperature and humidity, which means the cheese develops a unique flavour. By covering the cheese in the thinnest plastic coating possible (to protect the crust), the cheese matures better, as it can continue to breathe. As a result, the cheese develops the perfect flavour.

To provide next generations as well with delicious cheese, Treur contributes to sustainability. Therefore Treur has a special basement where we store and mature circa 200 ton cheese. This basement is located deeper in the ground, which means the temperature is more constant. This is why we need to cool less in summertime. Moreover, the automatic robot takes care of the cheese in the basement and therefore it makes it physically less heavy.

With our own exclusive cheese brands we offer excellent quality and an intense flavour. Our cheeses are always of an intensive flavour, naturally riped and with a perfect flavour. Moreover, each brand has its own unique story and this makes the cheese brands distinctly different from those of our competitors.

Driven by passion, knowledge and expertise, Treur not only provides its customers with top quality cheese, but it is also delighted to introduce you to the world of cheese. Come and enjoy the “complete cheese experience” and see what Treur can do for you.

Weydeland | 48+ Premium Quality GoudaWeydeland, with love

for cow, human and nature!

Weydeland cheese is inimitable. Fresh milk from Dutch cows is essential for Weydeland’s

soft, creamy taste. Cheese maker CONO pays the farmers an honest price for this milk, so the farmers

are able to earn a good living. The farmers also receive a premium for keeping their herd outdoors, which means

the cows are able to roam and graze in the fresh air from spring until autumn. Thus, the cows are more comfortable in their skin and they produce more and better milk. Grazing outdoors in grassy meadows improves the composition of the fats and proteins in the milk.

In the Midden-Beemster (North-Holland), where CONO’s cheese factory is located, the fresh milk is processed into cheese using traditional methods, according to a traditional recipe. After 2 weeks, the cheese leaves the factory and then it is aged in Treur’s warehouse. Here, each cheese has its own place, where it gets all the care it needs to give it time to develop the taste that makes Weydeland so excellent. It does so under optimal circumstances while being continually checked for taste and quality. Needless to say, Weydeland may be found among the premium quality cheeses.

With love for cowA cow only produces a lot of milk when he is happy. That is the case when he is grazing in the meadow. Therefore the cows are as much as possible outside grazing of the fresh grass. That is why the milk is even more tasty, which result in a delicious cheese.

With love for human The farmer receives an honest price for his milk, so he can provide good care for his cows. This is a win-win situation for farmer as well as the cow.

With love for nature The farmer works as much as possible with its own grass and manure. That is why he doesn’t need fertilizer and concentrate. As a result we and our children can enjoy the most tasty cheese of Holland.

What makes Weydeland so special?- Premium quality cheese.- Sustainably prepared and aged.- Naturally lower in salt.- Intense flavour due to its thin crust.- Complete range from very young to very mature.- Carefully aged on wooden shelves in optimal conditions.

Delicious!

Old Weydeland, naturally aged, extra delicious! Old Weydeland is an artisan very matured cheese made from the fresh milk of Dutch cows. The cheese factory combines modern-day technology with traditional methods to manufacture the cheese according to an authentic recipe.

When the cheese leaves the cheese factory it gets its own place in Weydeland’s warehouse. The humidity and temperature in the warehouse are constant, creating the best possible environment for the maturation of the cheese.

Here, the cheese rests for more than 16 months on wooden shelves. During this time the cheese gets all the care and attention it needs, to develop the perfect flavour. The cheese also gets the thinnest coating possible; allowing the cheese to breathe and letting nature to take its course. Only the best cheeses may carry the Old Weydeland label, and that is definitely something you can taste! The deliciously strong, lingering flavour of Old Weydeland is unsurpassed. A cheese with character!Old Weydeland only contains 2 grams of salt per 100 grams cheese, which is remarkably low for a cheese of this age.

Taste for yourself...

What makes Old Weydeland so unique?- Strong, very matured cheese with plenty of character.- Longer aging process than the average very mature cheese.- Aged for 16 months in a special cheese cellar, with as little disturbance as possible.- The tiny crystals in the cheese are proof of its old age.- An artisan cheese, manufactured by experts. - Attractive appearance and a sublime flavour.- First place in the taste test of the Consumentenbond 2007 (Dutch Consumers Association).- Won 2 GOLD stars at the Great Taste Awards 2010.

Twisca | Sheep’s cheese

Twisca, a unique Dutch sheep’s cheese.Twisca is a delicious flavourful Noord-Holland sheep’s cheese, full of vitamins. This cheese owes its rich, creamy taste to its high shape, which really benefits the aging process, and - more importantly - to the North-Holland pastures where the dairy ewes are allowed to graze to their hearts’ content.

Origin The origin of Twisca’s milk is from the farm West Friesedijk in North-Holland. The name is derived from the monumental dike which enclose the entire region Westfriesland. It has a total length of 137 km. At the farm there are 800 sheep on 70 hectares of land. The food grows on the farm and therefore the quality of the milk is always very high. This extra effort is made to their sheep, since the animal warefare is the most important thing to guarantee high quality products.

Sheep’s cheese Young sheep’s cheese is mild and creamy and it surpises many customers. When the cheese matures longer, its taste becomes more ‘sheepish’ and more intens. This is what the real cheese lover needs. Sheep’s cheese is also suitable for people with a cow’s milk allergy.

Ons Genot - Enjoy cheese according to Flemish tradition!

Ons Genot, Enjoy cheese according to Belgium

tradition!Enjoying life is in the blood of the Belgium people. Not only do they have a humble and hospitable attitude; they also have an eye for quality. Cheese is a logical part of Belgium tradition, which will now be expanded with a new delicacy: Ons Genot. This artisan delicacy is meant to be enjoyed every day. Taste the soft, creamy dairy with its fruity flavour and allow yourself to be immersed in the art of traditional cheese making. First, each cheese is created with care. Then, only the best cheeses are selected to carry the name Ons Genot. The rich, full flavour of Ons Genot is combined with a secret test done by the cheese master to produce a cheese suitable for all occasions, any time of the day.

Ons Genot owes its rich taste to the special grass that the cows eat. At the farm special grasses with a high protein content are sown, which are healthy and extra tasty. Moreover, the grass contains a lot of sugar which result in a slightly sweet cheese. The grass is mixed with straw, corn, beet pulp and important minerals so that the cows give the best tasting milk with the right balance of fats and proteins for extra creamy cheese. By using flaxseed, the cholesterol content of the cheese is low.

The maturation process takes place on wooden shelves. Under a constant temperature and humidity the cheese is aged for 6 months. The result is a deliciously strong cheese with an unusual flavour.

Variant: Description: Size:Ons Genot Artisan delicay of 6 months old and slightly sweet. 16 kg

Bon Repas: Farmhouse cheese with holes

Bon Repas is an authentic raw milk cheese with holes. This cheese is crafted according to a unique recipe and has an exceptionally creamy texture. It has a popular appeal and a flavour that everyone will enjoy.

The cheese is made by Cock and Piet Verweij at the polder village of Bonrepas in Krimpenerwaard near Gouda. The local people also refer to Bonrepas as Boenderpas, Boerenpas, Bonrepas (1254) or Bonrepois (1268). Bon Repas is French for a good meal.

According to legend, the name Bon Repas originated from Napoleon, who apparently enjoyed a good meal in the village. Nothing could be further from the truth, however, as the name already existed in the Middle Ages. Guido van Chatillon is associated with Bon Repas due to the following quote:

“Het is eene heerlijkheid, sedert onheugelijke jaren met Vlist tot ééne heerlijkheid vereenigd. Men wil, dat zij den naam Bonrepas, beteekenende eenen goeden maaltijd, gekregen hebbe van Guido van Chatillon, om reden het aan hem, die een groote smulbroer was, niet meer opbragt dan hij op eenen maaltijd kon verteeren”, according to (602).

The above quote is Old Dutch and translates as follows: This is a manor that has been joined with Vlist to form one estate since time immemorial. Legend has it that the name of Bonrepas - meaning a good meal - derives from the great gourmet Guido van Chatillon, since it yielded no more to him than he was able to consume during one repast.

This polder has other historical associations as well: Wilhelmina van Pruisen, wife of Stadtholder Willem V, was arrested near the River Vlist on 28 June 1787. Her arrest is known as the Arrest of Goejanverwellesluis.

Whatever the true origin of the name Bon Repas may be, it is a fact that dairy farms that make cheese have been established in this area for centuries. And this isn’t surprising because there

are some very rich pastures in these polders. The polder is located at 0.3 metres below Amsterdam Ordnance Datum, and its Bonrepas windmill is a well-known landmark. This smock windmill was built round about 1600 along the River Vlist in order to drain the polder. It is wind-powered and the water is lifted up by its large wheel.

The cows spend the summer months out in the rich pastures, and this results in the fresh full-cream milk used to make the unique Bon Repas farmhouse cheese. A combined cheese-curd maker can process 6,000 litres of fresh full-cream milk, and propionic acid bacteria are added to create the holes during the maturing process.

Maturing is a leisurely process that takes place on wooden planks, and the cheeses are allowed to mature at a high temperature (20 °C) for about 14 days. This serves to activate the bacteria in the cheese and creates the large holes, and it also makes the cheese bulge slightly. Bon Repas cheese matures for a total of 8 weeks before it can be eaten, and this period is essential for preparing a good meal.

This process results in a unique farmhouse cheese with an exceptionally creamy texture. The flavour is pleasantly sweet and mild and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Bon Repas is delicious as a topping for bread, in toasted cheese sandwiches and

salads, or in au gratin dishes. It has a low salt content: only 1.9 grams for each 100 grams of

cheese. In short, it’s delicious and very versatile. So why not take

the time to enjoy a good meal - with Bon Repas cheese?

Organic cheese


Jerseyhoeve, delicious and creamy Jersey cheese!

Jerseyhoeve Bio is an organic cheese made of 100% Jersey milk. The cheese is made of pasteurized Jersey milk of a herd of 80 cows. At the island Goeree-Overflakkee in the Netherlands the cheese is made by De Mèkkerstee, known for its Mèkkerstee organic goat’s cheese.

Jersey milk has a different composition of fat and protein than milk of Holstein cows. The amounts of fat (5,9%) and protein (4,2) are higher, which results in a more creamy cheese and a perfect flavour. More-over, Jersey milk is naturally rich of vitamins and minerals (2x), carotene and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) than milk of Holstein cows. This results in a particularly rich cheese with a distinctive flavour.

In addition, the Jersey cow is a strong race that efficiently handles its food supply. They use less food for the same amount of milk. This makes the Jersey cow suitable for organic agriculture. However, the cow is a lot smaller and gives less milk.

The biological nature of the Jerseyhoeve is characterized by the use of only natural ingredients. In this process the biological operations are optimally fulfilled and no pesticides or anything is used. All this results in the tastiest organic Jersey cheese, where you could taste the best of mother nature.

What makes Jerseyhoeve so unique? - Made of 100% organic Jersey milk. - Pure organic due to its natural ingredients. - Local product of the island Goeree Overflakkee in The Netherlands. - Very creamy and full of flavor. - Naturally rich in vitamins and minerals. - Organic Jersey milk is scarce and therefore the Jersey cheese is a real specialty.

PURE ORGANIC

Cato | pure organic cheese

Cato is the name of a range organic cheese by Treur. Cato was a dairy cow. With her age of 19 years old she produced fresh milk everyday. Nevertheless her herd with relatives consisting of 70 horned cows, still produce milk. This is very unusual, since in conventional dairy farming, the average dairy cow only reaches an age of 5-6 years. The herd also have their horns, unlike conventional dairy cows, which usually have their horns removed. At the Loverendale - Ter Linde farm, ecological practices are taken to the limit. In a unique conjunction between crops and livestock, a closed loop is created, in which the farm becomes self regulating. Harmonizing and supporting the life processes in soil, plants, and animals ensures that man’s interaction with nature is optimal, thus allowing both crops and animals to fully develop. The result? Authentic, great-tasting products of an amazing quality, as is demonstrated by Cato’s pure, unadulterated taste. And this is not the only reason why Cato is especially delicious: the milk is thermised, which does not remove all the “life” out of the cheese and also maintains Cato’s flavour. What makes Cato so unique?- Truly organic, approved by the EKO Quality Mark. - Remarkably rich in flavour thanks to the food and cheese making process.- Made from pure, unadulterated ingredients using organic methods. - Does not contain preservatives or E numbers. - Made with vegetarian rennet. - Pure, unadulterated taste and completely natural!
