What's in Henri Willig's Advent calendar?

Day 1 - 9 December - Henri Willig Bamboo Cheese Board

We start the advent calendar with the bamboo cheese board. This sturdy board will form the basis for the upcoming tastings and complete any cheese experience.

Day 2 - 10 December - Henri Willig Wooden Cheese Slicer

Today we add an essential tool to your cheese experience: the wooden cheese slicer. With it, you will effortlessly shave thin slices of the delicious cheeses in the calendar. Tip: with a cheese slicer, you can also easily shave thin slices of, for example, cucumbers and carrots. 

Day 3 - 11 December - Henri Willig Organic Supreme Goat's Cheese 300 grams

We make a gentle start with the organic Supreme Goat's Cheese. This cheese has a nutty, slightly sweet flavour and is full of ripening crystals. The cheese offers a creamy flavour experience, delicious on its own or with something crunchy.

Day 4 - 12 December - Henri Willig Crunchy Cheese Biscuits

The crispy cheese biscuits add a tasty crunch to your cheese tasting and are a perfect complement to yesterday's Supreme Goat Cheese.

Day 5 - 13 December - Henri Willig Green Pesto Cow's Cheese 380 grams

The rich, spicy flavour of pesto in a Gouda cheese. With its beautiful green colour, this cheese adds a surprising twist to any cheeseboard or festive dish.

Day 6 - 14 December - Henri Willig Cranberry Mustard 195 grams

A subtle balance between sweet and tangy: this mustard pairs perfectly with our cheeses, but also gives a tasty twist to meat or game dishes. A perfect ingredient for Christmas!

Day 7 - 15 December - Henri Willig Sparkling Wine Cow's Cheese 380g - Limited Edition

Time for a bubble! This Gouda cheese is a unique combination of our creamy Gouda cow's cheese with the delicate flavour of sparkling wine. Although its taste is reminiscent of a festive glass of bubbly, the cheese contains no alcohol, so you can enjoy it to your heart's content.

Day 8 - 16 December - Henri Willig Honey Turner

A handy tool for honey, soon to appear in the calendar. With the honey turner, you can easily add a touch of sweetness to different cheeses or dishes.

Day 9 - 17 December - Henri Willig Flower Honey 250 grams

Henri Willig's Flower Honey is sourced from Dutch beekeepers across the country. Honey is not only delicious in tea, cakes and many recipes; honey also tastes delicious with cheese. The sweetness contrasts nicely with the saltiness of cheese. Therefore, this honey will come in handy during the holidays!

Day 10 - 18 December - Henri Willig Trio Formaggio Cheese Grater

The Trio Formaggio Cheese Grater makes grating your favourite cheese easy. This table grater has three 'types' of grating in it: fine, coarse and for shreds. Whether you're serving carpaccio, pasta or soup: this grater makes it easy to finish your dish.

Day 11 - 19 December - Henri Willig Whisky Cheese 210 grams

Hip hip hurrah, today is founder Henri Willig's birthday! It was a special year for Henri, because this year we also celebrated the 50th anniversary of Henri Willig Cheese. This golden anniversary cheese was specially developed in honour of our anniversary, with Henri's favourite whisky. The whisky gives this 3-month aged cow's cheese a rich and very special flavour.

Day 12 - 20 December - Henri Willig Chef's Selection Combination of 3 Cheese Dips

These dips add an explosion of flavour to your board! Perfect to pair with the delicious cheeses and cheese biscuits from the calendar, for an extra dimension in flavours. Also delicious on a baguette at Christmas dinner, or use the Tomato Tapenade as a base for a Bruschetta.

Day 13 - 21 December - Henri Willig Pure Gold by Wiebe Willig 210 grams

The award-winning Pure Gold has been selected by Wiebe Willig as his favourite cheese. Naturally matured for several months and therefore intensely rich in flavour with a sweet undertone. To combine endlessly with!

Day 14 - 22 December - Henri Willig Black Garlic Pearls 50 grams

Black garlic is created by fermenting fresh garlic. In this process, the garlic turns black and acquires a sweeter flavour. The black garlic pearls are special umami flavours, delicious with drinks on a nice cheese curl, but also delicious on a slice of cheese or with a nice dish.

Day 15 - 23 December - Surprise

On day 15, you'll find a surprise in the Advent calendar that will get you off to a great start in 2025.

Day 16 - 24 December - Henri Willig Apple Sparkler 375 millilitres

A festive end to Christmas Eve! The fresh Appelsprankel is the ultimate finale, refreshingly ending the tasting you can put together with the Advent Calendar, or toasting to Christmas.

Tips for your Henri Willig Advent Calendar

To have extra fun with the Advent Calendar or to surprise the person you give the calendar to, we give you some useful tips below:

• We pack the Advent Calendar securely, to make sure it arrives well to you or the recipient. The box contains a basket, in which you can nicely display the packages after receipt.
• The Advent Calendar contains cheese. Although our cheeses can stay outside the fridge for several weeks thanks to their wax coating and/or vacuum packaging, we recommend keeping them refrigerated. Therefore, keep the packs with black packaging of days 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13 in the fridge.
• At the end of the Advent Calendar, you will have everything together to present a beautiful cheeseboard at Christmas and to complete your Christmas dishes. But, of course, in the meantime you can already enjoy the delicious flavours the calendar offers.
