From the Holland Family website since we couldn't say it any better ourselves,
"Award-winning cheesemaker, Marieke Penterman, celebrates her Dutch heritage with this exclusive collection of flavored Goudas. She and her team handcraft each wheel using herbs and seeds gathered in the Netherlands. Premium, raw, cow’s milk from her family farm provides each wheel of cheese with the exceptional flavor and texture you’ve grown to expect from Holland’s Family Cheese. Creamy and herbaceous with notes of garlic and parsley."
Our wheels spend an extra 9 mo+ aging on the Dutch pine planks at their creamery in Thorp, WI.

I've been a fan of all things nettle cheese for 30+ years from a little cheese shop in Ireland to the S. Lawrence Market in Toronto. So imagine my surprise and shock to find a nettle cheese in Michigan. While this cheese is very different from those with nettles I'v had previous, this one is good, exceptionally good. It's creamy, a little sweet, melts in your mouth with the most inviting of aromas and leaves you wanting more, a whole lot more. This is a cheese you oughta try and enjoy under any and all circumstances. It's simply perfect. Thank you for renewing my hope in humanity by making and selling this marvelous cheese. I am in love.
