Produced by Uniekaas in the Netherlands from pasteurized cow’s milk, Meadowkaas is made only in very limited quantities during the Spring months each year.  

This season is when the cows are able to graze on the fresh, new growth of rich grasses that are full of nutrients and flavor.  The result of this shows in the quality of the milk and therefore the cheese as its only this milk that is used for Meadowkaas.

Wheels are matured for four weeks prior to release.  The interior texture of Meadowkaas is firm and yet slightly pliant, dotted with teh occasional "eye" or hole.
