Fromage bunker
Le fromage Twentse Bunker est un délicieux fromage avec une recette spéciale. Grâce à cette recette et à l'affinage dans de parfaites conditions, le fromage a un goût légèrement épicé, plein et crémeux. C'est un fromage à pâte mi-dure qui est le plus délicieux après environ 25 semaines de maturation. Le fromage se caractérise également par une nuance de noisette. Le Twentse Bunker Cheese est affiné à la perfection dans un endroit spécial. Le fromager Jan Peter Nijenhuis est tombé sur ce lieu d'affinage particulier en 2011 lors de ses recherches. Un endroit où la température est toujours de 15 degrés Celsius et l'humidité est constante : un climat d'affinage unique pour le fromage Twentse Bunker.
Special ripening location
In the village Daarle, Twente, in the middle of nature, eight bunkers are hidden under a thick layer of earth, which are richly covered on the outside. Together these bunkers are perhaps the most special ripening location in the Netherlands. This complex used to serve as ammunition storage. Today it proves to be the perfect location to ripen cheese. The humidity is constant thanks to the excellent insulation and the temperature of 15 degrees as well. This also ensures sustainable ripening of the cheese. The unique character is once again emphasized by the striking appearance of the Twente Bunker Cheese. The logo is pressed into the side and top of the cheese.
The range of Twentse Bunker Cheese
For the production of Twentse Bunker Cheese, non-skimmed Dutch milk is used to which a special starter and vegetable rennet are added. These ingredients together provide the unique flavor and character of the cheese. Twentse Bunker Cheese is therefore completely vegetarian. In addition, no dyes are added. The cheese is available in different variants, including Twentse Bunker Cheese Cow, Twentse Bunker Cheese Goat, Twentse Bunker Cheese Cow / Goat, Twentse Bunker Cheese Pesto and Twentse Bunker Blues. Twentse Bunker Blues is made from extra creamy milk from the Montbéliarde cow. This provides a special flavor accent, a spicy character and an authentic taste.
