Jake’s personal favorite: Smoked Gouda. This latest addition is flavored after it has aged at least 60 days. Not for the faint of heart, Jake’s Smoked Gouda has a smooth, smoked oak flavor. If you’re a craft beer lover, we have good news. Smoked Gouda pairs best with beer, especially Brown Ales, Bocks, Porters and Stouts. The smoky finish also pairs well with the crispness of white wines, including Champagne, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Sauvignon.
True Gouda needs to breathe so our cheese get’s plenty of air. Turned daily on pine planks to ensure uniform age and perfection for at least sixty days, it’s also a raw milk cheese – no high temp pasteurization here. The results? One of New York’s finest traditional style Smoked Gouda cheeses!
Once our cheese has been milk cream coated and naturally aged it lasts for 2-3 months on the shelf prior to opening. After opening just refrigerate and enjoy! Because our cheese is crafted and cut by hand, weight is approximate. Don’t worry though; we err on the heavier side. Because, lets be honest – more cheese is always better.

simply the BEST!!! last year my husband was very upset with me for buying a whole 10lb. slab if this cheese, UNTIL he tasted it . he is still talking about it a year later. AND every one i gave it to as part of their gift is also asking for more . so here i am ordering it for all. don’t miss out! you will not regret buying it!

This is the best Smoked Gouda available. I bought some and tried it alongside of 4 other top brands. then I made hot ham and cheese sandwiches with it and the others I bought. I served them all to a group of 9 people. Each person picked which one they liked. they all unanimously picked Jake’s without knowing what cheese was in what sandwich. GREAT JOB Jake!! If you buy this you will not be disappointed!

Tried this smoked gouda at the Finger Lakes Cheese Festival. It was the absolute best smoked gouda I have ever had. I will definitely be ordering some.
