Smoked Gouda Cheese Gouda pronounced:  (g) h-ow-d Finding the right cheese to reflect a cozy, warm feeling during the Autumn months was a bit of a challenge. However, when I was at my local farmers market, I came across a beautiful piece of Smoked Gouda. Smoked Gouda is the perfect cheese to serve during the Autumn months for both its aroma and color. Its smokey hickory scent stimulates the senses that is reminiscent with wood burning fires on a crisp Fall evening while its
