The Président brand announces the U.S. launch of Leerdammer, a specialty import cheese that combines the best of two beloved tastes. Leerdammer offers consumers the nuttiness of Swiss cheese and the creaminess of Gouda all in one. Président is a leading global deli and dairy brand marketed in the United States by Lactalis USA, a subsidiary of Lactalis, the world’s largest dairy company.
“With the launch of Leerdammer, we are ushering in a new flavor experience that will appeal to all cheese lovers as it is a very approachable specialty cheese,” said Debbie Seife, Assistant Marketing Director for the Président brand. “Leerdammer is carefully crafted to deliver a beautiful balance between nuttiness and creaminess and offers a delicious new experience for entertaining.”
Originally created in Holland in 1974, Leerdammer has solidly established itself as one of Europe’s leading hard cheeses over the past 50 years with a radiant, welcoming, and unconventional flavor profile that has also made it a worldwide favorite.
Leerdammer is available in 7 oz wedges with convenient packaging that is re-closeable. The wedge is convenient for entertaining family and friends or for larger social gatherings such as holiday parties. Whether it's a fun brunch charcuterie board, game night, elevated tailgate or movie night, Leerdammer is the perfect fit for all occasions.
Leerdammer is now available in select Northeast retailers, including Tops Friendly Markets, Foodtown, Associated Grocery Stores, Key Food, and King Kullen, with additional retail expansion to follow in the coming months. For more information and recipe inspiration, click here and here.
