OG Kristal, also known as "Old Groendal," is an award-winning aged Gouda-style cheese from Belgium. The cheese is known for its dense, creamy texture and delightful crystals that pop like candy in your mouth. Its flavor profile includes notes of boozy cherries, fudge, and butterscotch.

Kaasaffineurs Van Tricht is a renowned cheese affineur based in Antwerp, Belgium, dedicated to the aging and refinement of artisanal cheeses. Under Michel Van Tricht, Frederic's father, they expanded their operations to include cheese aging, establishing their first aging cave in the late 1980s. As of now, they operate ten modern aging caves tailored to different types of cheeses, ensuring optimal maturation conditions.
