Autumn is for Old Amsterdam®: Gouda for Football, Fall Festivals, and Fabulous Entertaining!

 

Autumn is for Old Amsterdam®: Gouda for Football, Fall Festivals, and Fabulous Entertaining!

 

 Gouda is the cheese of fall, and no one does Gouda better than Old Amsterdam®. Whether you’re preparing for a fall filled with tailgates, back-to-school lunches, or other fall gatherings, Old Amsterdam Cheese is the answer to all your autumn taste buds.  

 

Truly the most versatile cheese on the market, Old Amsterdam offers their Classic Aged Gouda and Old Amsterdam Goat Gouda. Old Amsterdam Cheese is a top leader in the Branded Aged Gouda Market in Holland, as Gouda cheese continues to grow in the US and worldwide. Both Gouda and Goat cheeses have risen in popularity among specialty cheeses over the past year. Old Amsterdam lends its name to some of the best Gouda and Goat Gouda cheeses on the market. Premium and specialty cheeses continue to perform well with more people eating and entertaining at home, as many Americans have expanded beyond traditional favorites to full-flavored specialty products, for which Old Amsterdam is well-known. 

The line-up includes:

 

·        Old Amsterdam Aged Gouda known as The Classic. This is the #1 Aged Gouda in Holland.  The Classic Gouda is aged for a minimum of 8 months creating a perfect balance between sweet and savory.  It has rich butterscotch undertones and a dense, smooth texture sparked with fine ripening crystals. This popular and well-loved favorite from Holland has won numerous awards and is loved internationally. It is ideal for cheese platters, recipes, and other pairings such as almonds, jam, fruit chutney, fruits, raisin nut bread, and crackers. The Classic also pairs well with a favorite wine, beer, or cocktail.  

·        Old Amsterdam Goat Gouda has been voted the #1 Hard Goat’s Milk cheese in the world.  The Goat Gouda is aged for a minimum of 8 months and has a very surprisingly and pleasant flavor profile:  refreshingly sweet with caramel undertones and a smooth, creamy texture with fine ripening crystals.  The sweetness and texture make this great to top on salads, with sandwiches, and in many popular recipes. It pairs well on a platter with hazelnuts, figs, fruits, and your favorite IPA. 

 

Both flavors are great for eating straight from the pack, adding to sandwiches or salads, or melting on top of your favorite fall dishes. With deep, rich, and nutty flavors, Old Amsterdam is perfect for cooking the best autumn meals, and is sure to leave your hearts, souls, and stomachs warm and cozy. As the fall air crisps, there isn’t anything quite like sitting around the dining table with family and friends, sharing memories while savoring every last bite of Old Amsterdam’s finest featuring the Classic and Goat Goudas. Old Amsterdam also goes splendidly alongside the favorite flavors of fall—think apple, pumpkin, and spices galore– thus making its Gouda and Goat varieties the ideal addition to any Fall Harvest Cheese Board or Grazing Platter.

 

Old Amsterdam can be purchased through e-commerce athttps://shop.norseland.com/old-amsterdam and at such retailers as King’s, Raley’s, ShopRite, Albertsons, Trader Joes, Gelson’s, HEB, Hy-Vee, Lunds & Byerlys, Mariano’s, Pavilions, Safeway, Sprouts.

SINOPIS

Ambientada en Miami, VANDAL sigue la estela de Nick Cruz, un artista de grafiti cubano-americano también conocido como “Damage” y líder de la infame banda de grafiteros MGK.

Nick, también conocido como “Damage”, es un artista de grafiti extremadamente talentoso que recorre las calles de Miami con sus amigos con un único objetivo en mente: el vandalismo. En una apacible noche de Miami, su mentor, “Pharo”, el fundador de MGK, se quita la vida, desatando una ola de shock en la comunidad grafitera. La situación desborda emocionalmente a Nick.

 

Mientras tanto, Nick inicia un romance con “Silk” ––la cual pertenece a una banda rival de toda la vida––, y esto reactiva las antiguas tensiones entre ambos bandos. “Sizmik”, el líder de la banda rival, profana el mural conmemorativo de Pharo, lo que hace que Nick se embarque en una peligrosa guerra callejera cuyo objetivo es la venganza. Con el Departamento Antipandillas de la Policía siguiéndoles la pista, los MGKs continúan su matanza grafitera nocturna por las calles de Miami mientras, una noche, Sizmik observa a los MGKs haciendo una pintura en una azotea. Devastado y pisoteado, hace lo impensable: Llama al 911 y denuncia el vandalismo a la policía. Los acontecimientos que se desencadenarán enviarán a la banda entera por una espiral caótica de hechos que los cambiará para siempre y que harán que Nick cuestione por qué ha dedicado su vida al vandalismo.

DASHCAM

Inspired by Antonioni's Blow-Up, Brian De Palma’s Blow Out, and Francis Ford Coppola’s The Conversation, Dashcam is a stunning psychological thriller that follows Jake (Eric Tabach, “Blue Bloods”)—a timid video editor at a local news channel who fantasizes about becoming a reporter. 

While editing a piece on a routine traffic stop that resulted in the death of a police officer and a major political official (Larry Fessenden, Dementer, Jakob’s Wife), Jake is inadvertently sent dashcam video evidence that tells a completely different story. Working alone from his small apartment in NYC, Jake uses his skills as an editor to analyze the footage and piece together the truth behind what actually happened. Has Jake uncovered a conspiracy that he can break on the morning news? Or is he seeing things that aren’t really there?

 

Also starring Zachary Booth (“The Good Fight”), Scott Aiello (“Billions”), Noa Fisher (Uncut Gems) and Giullian Yao Gioiello (“Scream : The TV Series”).

Dashcam, written and directed by Christian Nilsson, is available On Digital October 19 from Kamikaze Dogfight and Gravitas Ventures.
