A Gastronomic Bridge Born from Love for Kennemerland
My story with Kennemerland began 13 years ago, when I arrived in the Netherlands and found my home in this region. Here, I built my family alongside my husband—a native of this historic land and my life partner in this project—and witnessed the birth of my two children in Haarlem and Alkmaar, two iconic cities with a rich Dutch cheese-making tradition.
As the founder and executive curator of Kennemerland Kaas, my personal passion drives our company's quality standards and cultural vision. Throughout these years, constantly traveling between Mexico and the Netherlands, I fell deeply in love with the culture, the landscapes, and, above all, the true craftsmanship of aged Dutch cheese. Observing the Mexican market, I realized that Mexico deserves an authentic, pure, and uncompromising artisanal Dutch cheese—a genuine culinary experience that goes beyond industrial and mass-market options. Mexico boasts one of the most sophisticated cuisines in the world, with consumers who value character, history, and excellence in every bite.
Kennemerland Kaas was born from the desire to share that passion. We designed an offering that not only brings the authentic flavor of Oude Kaas (Old cheese) and the richness of our aged goat cheeses to Mexican shelves, but also crafts unique pieces that weave together the soul of both cultures. This brand is a reflection of who I am, of what I have learned to love, and of the high-end culinary bridge that I am honored to present to you today.
I hope you enjoy this offering as much as we enjoyed the journey of creating it.
