Northumberland – England – cow’s milk – unpasteurised
Doddington is made using a hybrid of cheese-making techniques, Parmesan, Cheddar
and aged Gouda, yet cheese maker Maggie’s original main infl uence was Red Leicester!
Using fresh milk straight from the family’s cows, the cheese is handmade every day on their farm.
It is then aged for over a year to allow the strength and crystalline nature to develop.
When matured it develops sweetness with a sharp savoury fi nish.
Gloucestershire – England – cow’s milk – pasteurised
A mellow, buttery, ‘washed-rind’ cheese that expresses the rich and diverse clover pasture of Chedworth’s Manor Farm. It is based on the classic French cheese Reblochon and encircled in a spruce band that helps hold it together and adds a piney note to the cheese.
Herefordshire England – goat’s milk – pasteurised
A soft, matured goat’s cheese with a densely fudgy texture and lactic, lemony flavours reminiscent of créme fraîche.
Lanark - Edinburgh – Scotland – sheep’s milk – unpasteurised
An iconic farmhouse British cheese, this is Scotland’s answer to Roquefort; the rich sheep’s milk complemented by a strong, powerful blue veining. Lanark Blue was created in the 1980s and has become a modern classic. Creamy and rich with a powerful kick.
