Let’s not forget Eastern European cheeses! Brânză de burduf (also known as "Brânză frământată"(English: Kneaded cheese)) is a salty type of Romanian cheese, made with sheep (or occasionally buffalo) milk. It has a strong flavour and slightly soft in texture. Bulgarian cashcaval is another rich flavourful cheese made from sheep or goat milk.
In the canton of Ticino there's enough variety of cheeses to go along a whole life, my horizon on cheese encompasses the whole of Europe with variety, flavour and textures to have a different cheese each day of ones life. In the end I think there's no "favourite cheese", somewhere there's the next one.
The Azores have an outstanding cheese that I feel you have missed along with the Mountain cheeses of the Alps. The first cheese of the season is made from milk when the cows have first been taken to the high pastures where they feed off of the flowers. The Val di Non and Sole are two areas that make this amazing cheeses.
There are many cheeses that I enjoy, but if I had to pick five, it would be : Manchego (Spain); Parmigiano reggiano (Italy); Bleu d'Auvergne (France); Appenzeller (Switzerland); Brie de Meaux (France). Cheers!
I AM LUCKY TO LIVE IN SOMERSET, WITH CHEDDAR JUST A FEW MILES AWAY! THERE ARE A FEW TYPES WHICH ARE ALL UNPASTEURISED, MADE IN SOMERSET WITH KEEN'S MADE NEAR WINCANTON RACECOARSE, CHEDDAR MADE IN CHEDDAR, AND MY FAVOURITE MONTGOMERY WHICH IS MORE EXPENSIVE, WITH A DIFFERENT TASTE! I ALSO LOVE ALL UNPASTEURISED CHEESES FROM THE EU, ESPECIALLY FRENCH CHEESES!
Fun Fact, main reason why in the Netherlands so much cheese and other dairy products are produced is because the soil cannot be used for much else than grow grass (peat soil).
What's about Handkäse? You find it in the Rhine-Main area in Germany. It's similar to Harz Cheese. It's a low fat cheese, you eat it plain and simple with bread and butter or with a sauce of oil, vinagre, onions, paprika and kummel.
I lived in Italy and traveled to Greece and Netherlands and therefore I have tried all these 3 countries cheeses. Italy has some good ones : parmigiano, mozzarella, pecorino, ricotta…, however if you like cheeses with strong character, real flavors and and want to enjoy various types, France tops all the countries. Camembert is an amazing french cheese but Comté, Roquefort, Brie, Saint Nectaire, Bleu d’Auvergne, Cantal, Morbier, Pont L’Eveque, Livarot, Epoisse, Mimolette… acccompany with french wines 😍😍😍
I love Emmentaler, Bergkäse, Cumin- seeded Boerenkaas, Gouda, Chevre, Feta, Camembert, Brie, Gruyere, Fontina, Parmigiano, Pecorino & Cheddar. I want to try other 🧀 too
really you speak of european cheese and dont include spain, portugal, estland and lithuania? What about Romania and Poland? And if you include British cheddar nowadays you could include also swiss cheese don;t you think? Would love to see a more complete documentary about this. Specially with not only the mainstream cheeses
Most thses chesses are commercial cheese..they're good and represent each country and I love them each for it's use and i prefer Dutch Gouda on it's own as the best 😊, fetta with greens, cheddar with hot food, Italian cheese just to add flavor.. i don't like French cheese no soft or blues for me.. 😕
A really unfair comparison. For example, one of the best cheeses ever - the famous pecorino cheese is not top five in this list. Pitty. But then - the taste is highly biased.
Where are the Spanish cheese?? Cow milk its not the best milk for cheese. Sheep and goat milk are better. Spanish cheese not are popular because not are comercial, dont have marketing. Try manchego, cabrales, gamoneu, casar, or one sheep cheese with 1-2 years old.
Spanish cheeses are not well known with the exception of by cheese experts. Almost every one in the western world knows about feta, parmasean, gouda, and cheddar. Camembert may be a little more obscure. Personally I have had a Spanish cheese once. I do not even remember what it was called. I think if anything was missing it was probably gorgonzola, brie, and gruyere because again these are well known cheeses the world through.

i like brânză de sheep.
Never heard of any of these!!!
I love them all. Maybe only a holey Swiss cheese was missing. Living in England, Cheddar is much cheaper than all the others so I must buy that
A mature cheddar is sublime and so versatile. The sharper, the better!
👏
My favorite kind? All!
Manchego cheese from Spain is probably my favorite.
mine too..
Same here 👍

Excellant answer, and one I can only echo!
For topping pastas I prefer Pecorino.
The videos are always on top. Not too long,all the information on point,never boring,....thank you @DW.
Love cheeses of all varieties, but a special treat when I can find it here in California, is Valdéon. A Spanish blue cheese.

Who knew that coagulated mammal lactation was so good?
Anything tastes good fermented.
le gruyere!!!
Comté. if you please
I would add halloumi cheese to that list as Cyprus makes this incredible cheese you can grill that is unique and European.

You already mentioned a whole bunch of my fav cheeses. How about a tomme de savoie? Or a feta from corsica?
I love Emmentaler, Bergkäse, Cumin- seeded Boerenkaas, Gouda, Chevre, Feta, Camembert, Brie, Gruyere, Fontina, Parmigiano, Pecorino & Cheddar. I want to try other 🧀 too
No french would eat camenbert with cider, most people eat it with red wine but it goes way better with white wine
Camembert is great with beers as well, like Brown Ales or Pale Ales 🙂
My personal top five, in no order are
1. Stilton
2. Camembert
3. Manchego
4. Gouda
5. Pecorino Romano
How is it a top five if it's in no order?
@@shankieinthefridge it is in order ?
1. is their favorite and 5. is their least favorite
@@Shaytan.666 but (s)he says it's not in order
Cheddar and halloumi are the best! 🎉
European cheeses are probably great for making a cheese sandwich. No meat, just cheese.. 😊
I like gruyere made in Switzerland, gouda from Holland, Parmesan from Italy. Have not had french camemere or English cheddar. Had french Brie.
I love the European cheeses. Europe has the best cheeses in the world. Italian, Dutch and British cheddar are the best!
Greetings from Azerbaijan.
My favorite is Oaxaca cheese!

And if you include British cheddar nowadays you could include also swiss cheese don;t you think? Would love to see a more complete documentary about this.

British cheeses are amazing; cheddar, red Leicester, stilton vizzo7
You forgot Switzerland as one of the most renowned cheese countries in Europe.
Like the cheese with holes in it? HARD PASS
@@TheGero95 Those and many others. But they're nothing for those with US American taste of molten cheese, I admit.
Swiss Gouda is also the best.
France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Netherlands at the top
Exactly.
I had filo cheese from Agydea. It's a kind of smoked Mozzarella and very salty.
My preference is soft strong tasting cheeses...
...then try Danish Esrom or the Canadian Limburger cheeses!
What about the Swiss Ementaler and Gruyère ? The French TTomme des Pyrénées, Comté ? You missed a lot...
My favorite is Cremeux du Bourgogne
Mascaporne is my favorite cheese
We need more countries and cheeses!
Ah....Compte...I like the most.😁
All those are realy nice....maybe Dutch cheeses I like in general...better then others🙂👌
How do they get rennet?
Mozzarella and Pecorino baby! to rule them all. (I send a load of love to Feta and Parmesan though)
If I am served with Camembert, then I can forget the others.
Wow 😊😊😊 what a show🎉🎉
Greece has other delicious cheeses like graviera and kasseri 😋
My favourite is 'paneer'
Called as indian cheese
You should make a video on paneer
What about Swiss 🇨🇭 cheese 🧀 🤔?
Ohhan eye feast ❤

Silton

Chaource
Realy Loves all cheese over the world but Europa have the best Cleese 🧀😃
Most thses chesses are commercial cheese..they're good and represent each country and I love them each for it's use and i prefer Dutch Gouda on it's own as the best 😊, fetta with greens, cheddar with hot food, Italian cheese just to add flavor.. i don't like French cheese no soft or blues for me.. 😕
Camembert, and Parmesan
where emmentaler?
In a quiche I make, for one location. Mmmmm.
In south Asian weddings, family photographers are obsessed with Cheese.
"Say Cheese".
They keep repeating again and again.
Denmark makes some pretty good cheese .
Cantal: vieux ou entre deux.
0:20 20 seconds into the video and you make your first pronunciation error: Gouda.
Gorgonzola is the best. Case closed!
Where is mozzarella
Italien ❤
for me gouda doesn’t really have that much of a taste. Living in the country of cheese i would not buy it…
Bryndza!
A really unfair comparison. For example, one of the best cheeses ever - the famous pecorino cheese is not top five in this list. Pitty. But then - the taste is highly biased.
Cheestrings are the best.
There are much more cheeses that you did not cover.
My favourite is Goat cheese. Chevre
You talk with a farmer in Gouda, he says ‘Gouda’, yet you still call it Goodah. Ridiculous.
Pourquoi n'utilisent-ils pas de gants appropriés pour l'hygiène ?!
Bien se laver les mains est largement suffisant
@@hadelidell4285 😅
HALLOUMI IS THE BEST.
Cheddar all the way.
Belgian cheeses are the best
cheese good, but cows bad? you cannot have your cheese and eat it too
Government American cheese on a burger.
Classic American cuisine. Michelin class from the BBQ. The government knows how to do things
Brie!
The people who make cheese. Are so cheesy. 😁
LOL How to lose every single once of credibility in less than 6 minutes: not talking about Swiss cheese. Well done DW. 🤣
Feta and parmesan.I cant stand cheddar.Neither crazy about camemrbert or brie.
Edam
The horror of yet another presenter unable to pronounce Gouda properly. Argh!
Comte

Iberian cheese in general seems less famous, probably the most famous is manchego.
Manchego is delicious 😊
The best of all cheese is made in china. 😂
Bull.
Pork cheese
Missing Swiss and blue and pecorino
Italia è il NUMERO 1 IN ASSOLUTO. ALTRI,con poche eccezioni, sono all'età della pietra per quanto riguarda i formaggi. 😂😂😂
I agree 💯.
