For several generations, the Nijland family owns the Kaamps estate located in Deurningen in the East of the Netherlands.  Originally a small traditional form, Herbert and his wife Yvonne decided to diversify their activities and to produce their first cheese 30 years ago.

Today, the herd is made up of 300 cows and the milking is fully automated.  The cheese dairy, although of modest size is ultra-modern.

We started the first importations to Canada with Herbert's daughter Femke and we then kept on developing exclusive cheese recipes.

We are particularly proud of our latest cheese The Maple Whisky Kaamps, which combines the Nijland family's cheese-making expertise with a local Canadian product.

Comté is the very first cheese imported by Les Dépendances and the relationship with Jean-Charles Arnaud has been going on ever since.  Together we made the choice of exclusive distribution of the specific Charles Arnaud range across Canada.

Comté Charles Arnaud is matured in the spectacular Fort des  Rousses (Jura).  An exclusive cellar over 214 meters long is dedicated to the maturation of this specific range.  Every single wheel is being given a constant care and selected by Master cheese makers.

The expertise to bring the cheese to its best maturation is so high at Fromageries Arnaud that whatever you are enjoying a 12, 18, 24 or 36 months old Comté, you will always find the flavour profile to meet your highest expectations.
