Discover our history

Timeline

Step into the history of 't Kaaswinkeltje, a shop that traces its origins in the heart of Gouda, over a century ago. From humble beginnings as a simple dairy shop around 1880 to the thriving cheese shop it is today.

Since 1993, the dairy shop has been transformed into a cheese shop by Ad and Krijniëlle. Ad's childhood among cows and cheese in the Ruige Weide instilled in him a love for cheese. At 't Kaaswinkeltje, we not only celebrate our history but also our future. Ad proudly trains the next generation while continuing to strive for the highest quality and authenticity in our selection of cheeses. Step inside and discover the story behind 't Kaaswinkeltje, where tradition and flavor come together in every cheese we offer.
