Made by Fraser Norton & Rachel Yarrow

Llangadog, Carmarthenshire

Wittenham is named after the cheesemakers' herd and the fact that they’re close to a pair of wooded chalk hills whose peaks are called the Wittenham Clumps.

From 2016 to 2024, Fraser Norton and Rachel Yarrow made their exceptional French-inspired goat's cheeses at Earth Trust Farm in Oxfordshire. In early 2025, they took a leap of faith and purchased Pencrug, a 120-acre farm in Carmarthenshire. During their time at Earth Trust, Rachel completed a Master’s degree on indoor and outdoor systems in the UK dairy goat sector and was awarded a Nuffield Fellowship to explore the potential for pasture-based goat dairying in the UK—a system that remains very rare. These experiences led Rachel and Fraser to the realisation that it was time to put their research into practice.

Wittenham was born out of our desire to introduce an aged cheese to our goat's milk selection. After a few rounds of experimentation, we decided that Brightwell Ash was the best candidate. Brightwell Ash arrives with us when just a week or two old. Upon arrival, we dry the cheese as we would a Brightwell Ash but do so for longer. We then mature it at cold temperatures until we are happy with the flavour that has developed.
