International cheeses

A cheeseboard becomes more interesting through contrast. Combine a soft cheese with a more firmly aged choice, for example, and add a distinctive cheese if it suits your party. This creates variety in flavour and texture without filling the board with too many separate elements.

Start with the number of people and the occasion. Is the cheese a small part of the drinks, the heart of the board or the conclusion to a meal? Tell us whether your party mainly appreciates familiar flavours or enjoys trying something new. The team can then narrow the choice down to a few suitable cheeses and advise on an appropriate amount.

Would you like to put together complete drinks for a group? See our catering options. The visible product pages and a confirmed request are always the guide to current products, prices and selections.

In a good combination, not every product has to demand attention. A mild cheese asks something different of a wine or charcuterie than a powerful, salty or creamy cheese. Start with the cheese you want to serve and tell us what else will be on the table. Nassen can then help you look for flavours that complement one another or provide a pleasant contrast.

Keep the rest of the board clear and simple. Bread or toast, something fresh or sweet and a suitable wine may be all you need. You can find the current online selection in our range; in the shop, you can also ask for advice about cheese, wine, charcuterie and other delicacies that form a single whole together.

Nassen Amsterdam is located at Huidenstraat 23H, in the heart of the Nine Streets. You can always taste our cheeses before choosing. This is especially useful when you are deciding between two styles, selecting a cheese for someone else or taking something new home without relying on a description alone.

Tell us what you need the cheese for, which flavours you enjoy and how many people will be eating it. The team can then help you compare by flavour and use. This way, you do not automatically choose the best-known name, but the cheese that suits your occasion.

A piece of cheese can be a tasty memory of Amsterdam. If you would like to take cheese home, to your hotel or on a journey, ask in the shop which cheese and packaging are suitable for your circumstances. Suitable cheese can be vacuum-packed.

Vacuum packing is not a general guarantee of shelf life, transport or admission at your destination. Before travelling, always check the latest rules of your carrier, destination and any stopovers yourself. Also ask how best to store your chosen cheese during the journey and at home.

International cheese can suit a business lunch, client reception, drinks or a hospitality concept. Start with the occasion, the number of people and the desired flavour direction. This prevents you from ordering by name alone and helps the choice suit the party better.

Yes. You can always taste our cheeses before choosing. Tell us which flavours you enjoy and what you want to use the cheese for. The team will then help you compare a few suitable options.

That depends on your party and the occasion. Preferably combine different flavours and textures, such as soft, firmly aged and possibly distinctive. In the shop, Nassen can help keep the board balanced and advise on a suitable amount.

Start with the cheese rather than a general rule. Flavour, texture, ageing and whatever else you are serving determine which wine may pair pleasantly. Bring your cheese choice or drinks plan to the shop, so the advice can be tailored to the actual combination.

Suitable cheese can be vacuum-packed. Ask in the shop whether this is appropriate for your chosen cheese and circumstances. For a journey, you must also check the latest rules of your carrier, destination and any stopovers yourself.

This varies by destination, carrier, stopover and type of cheese. Nassen can help with the choice of cheese and suitable packaging, but before travelling you must check the latest import and transport rules yourself with the competent authorities and your carrier.

The range may vary with the season and availability. The visible products and individual product pages are therefore the guide. Taste what is currently available in the shop and ask about an alternative if a cheese you previously chose is unavailable.

Yes, when the product is part of the available business range. Once a business account has been personally approved, you can see the prices and ordering options available to your account. You can also make a catering request for a composed cheeseboard, lunch or drinks.
