Do tell me, what are your favourite cheeses which are so matured that all lactose is gone!

Oh, and another question. On a per volume basis, is there an equal amount of lactose in sheep, cow and goats milks?

No idea to the second question.

Yes, those go. But I'm looking for new types of hard, aged cheeses to try and was looking for reccos and maybe even recipes to use them in and good wine pairings. Ambitious I am!So Mimolette, aged goudas at 3 years, those are safe, too?

The Inuits all got sick and declared war, thinking the Vikings were trying to poison them, and drove the Vikings out of North America.
