Anno59 | Old
Treat yourself to Veenmeester Anno59 Old! This cheese has a lovely firm bite and a complex flavor that perfectly balances salty, sweet, sour, and a hint of spice. A real treat for cheese lovers.
Anno59 Oud has been aged for an impressive 10 to 12 months. This allows the cheese to develop a mysterious umami flavor, complete with fine crystals that crunch gently in your mouth with every bite. Addictive, if you ask us.
Anno59 Oud is made from pasture-raised milk from Overijssel. From cows that graze on fertile peat soil and have plenty of space to do their thing.
This cheese is made according to a traditional recipe and by real craftsmen. We always use vegetarian rennet with an eye for sustainability. Here you can read how.
This cheese matures on wooden shelves in a climate-controlled space with optimal conditions for maximum flavor. Every cheese is a new one.
Enjoy our aged cheese on a crispy multigrain roll, shaved, or as a garnish for that luxurious dish. Or serve it cubed on a cheese board with fig chutney and pear compote!
Anno59 Old is made by true craftsmen with the same passion and dedication as on our first day in 1959. Entirely according to our own recipe, just like our other cheeses: Young, Semi-Mature, Mature, and Extra Mature.
You can eat this as a block of cheese with drinks, as a topping for a sandwich or, for example, shredded over a plate of pasta. Very versatile!

On the way to sustainable cheese
Sure, it's all about the taste. It must be good. Perfect even. But we also find sustainability and the well-being of our animals important. That is why we produce our cheese with nature, people and cows in mind.
Our livestock farmers' cows graze in the meadow as much as possible. At least 120 days per year and 6 hours per day. And they can often choose whether they prefer to stay in the stable or go outside.
Our cows usually graze on peat land. This means that nitrogen does not need to be added to the soil for the grass to grow well. That happens automatically. In a sustainable and natural way.
And our cheese makers also love green. Just like the cows. That is why we produce as much as possible with solar energy and reuse water and waste. This way we keep the impact on the environment minimal.
Innovation is key here. In the cheese factory we combine our knowledge and craft with the latest equipment, so that we can work increasingly efficiently – without compromising on taste and texture.
So we go for truly sustainable cheese. From the blade of grass and the cow to the store.
