Victoria Tagg makes Crockhamdale to an old Wensleydale recipe that the late James Aldridge found in a 1920s Almanack. The result is a cheese whose texture has some of the moist crumbliness of a Wensleydale or Cotherstone with the sweeter, more biscuity or nutty flavours associated with sheeps milk. As it ages, it can have a warming spicy kick.
