A selection that brings together our four best known and best loved traditional British farmhouse cheeses.
Appleby's Cheshire
milk type
Cow
ingredients
MILK, salt, rennet
coagulant
Animal Rennet
A well-balanced raw milk cheese boasting rich mineral flavours upfront, a juicy acidity and the succulent yet crumbly texture that is so characteristic of a classic Cheshire.
Colston Bassett Stilton
milk type
Cow
ingredients
MILK, salt, rennet
coagulant
Animal Rennet
A blue for those who ‘don’t like blues’, the Stilton we buy from Colston Bassett is made exclusively for Neal’s Yard Dairy. Gentler, sweeter and more balanced than a ‘typical’ blue cheese, it boasts a creamy, buttery paste pierced with the delicate blue veining characteristic of a Stilton.
Kirkham's Lancashire
milk type
Cow
ingredients
MILK, salt, rennet
coagulant
Animal Rennet
Best known for its inimitable crumbly-yet-creamy texture – a texture the Kirkham family call ‘buttery crumble’ – this raw milk farmhouse Lancashire boasts a bright, full flavour finished off by a light, yoghurty tang.
Montgomery's Cheddar
milk type
Cow
ingredients
MILK, salt, rennet
coagulant
Animal Rennet
Rich, brothy, savoury flavours are the hallmarks of the Cheddars we select from Montgomery’s. Drier and more stratified than most of the Cheddars we sell, its almost crystalline nature makes it melt in the mouth.
