The story

Take the boat to Over-Amstel and spend the day with cheesemaker Dewi learning the process from fresh local milk. Taste, work through the steps and make a young cheese of your own. A farm lunch breaks up the session; at the end, take your cheese home and let it mature for a few weeks before cutting into it.
