For Henri Willig, cheese is more than just a delicacy; it is a story of tradition, quality and sustainability.

Henri Willig is not just a cheese company, it is also a family business. Founded in 1974 by Henri Willig and his wife Riet, the company was passed on to the next generation and is now run by one of his sons, Wiebe Willig. The other 2 sons, Jacob and Martin, and several grandchildren are also active in the business.

When you think of Father's Day you think of gifts like ties, aftershave and good food.
In this blog we focus on the last one, because of course we immediately think of cheese. Thinking of a generously filled sandwich, or a board with lots of cheese cubes, of course with mustard and a beer. Especially for Father's Day, you want to spoil the fathers in your life, such as your father, your father-in-law, your grandfather or your brother or friend who is a father. They deserve it!

If there is one season that makes many people blossom it is spring. Literally everything blooms and grows. Just look at the plants and flowers for example. During spring the days are fortunately also "longer" again. That makes everyone happy.
In the early years, Henri Willig was a passionate cheese maker who started on a small scale. He created his tasty cheeses according to the authentic Gouda recipe, without any extra flavours or additives. The success of these delicious cheeses, which soon became known as the colourful Henri Willig cheeses, demanded more. This need for variety led to an expansion of the range. First, classic cheese flavours, such as cumin cheese and herb cheese, were developed. Later, we added more exotic flavours, such as green pesto cheese, lavender cheese and coconut cheese, to name just a few.
The way to anyone’s heart is through the stomach. Most people are familiar with this statement. As a matter of fact, this expression is found in several countries and languages. Nowadays you can get something anywhere or order it. But especially in these "fast times" when everyone is busy, it’s important to make a little time for each other. It's about that little bit of attention that you give to your significant other, and you can give that attention, for example, by preparing something tasty yourself.
