Ticklemore

Ticklemore

A goat’s milk cheese that doesn’t taste remotely ‘goaty’, the Ticklemore combines light and gently lemony flavours with herbaceous notes that deepen with age, and reveals a firm, chalky texture beneath its stark white rind.

Though produced today by Sharpham Dairy, Ticklemore was first conceived by Robin Congdon of Ticklemore Farm Dairy which makes three of our blue cheeses. In the early 2000s, space requirements demanded he hand the reins – and the recipe for Ticklemore – over to Sharpham Dairy which has been producing it faithfully ever since. Ticklemore's distinctive shape comes from the fact that, like Berkswell, it is moulded in a plastic colander. The goat's milk comes from three farms in Devon, where Sharpham Dairy is located.

We sell Ticklemore quite young – at about four to six weeks old, when its flavour is still on the milder side of lemony and herbaceous. We re-wrap the cheeses on arrival and move them to a cold maturing space, which allows the cheese to break down slowly.

FAQs

As a general rule of thumb, we would recommend roughly between 100 and 150 grams per person for after dinner, and a bit more if cheese is the focus of the meal. If you are buying cheese to serve over a couple of days or as part of a buffet, it is advisable to buy a few larger pieces. This will both look better and keep better than many small bits. To help visualise weights, a good tip is to consider that a regular supermarket pat of butter weighs between 200 and 250 grams. If you are at all unsure please give us a call for some advice.

The best option is to keep your cheese wrapped in its paper within a box in the fridge. This will prevent the cheese from drying out and absorbing other flavours. Your cheese will arrive wrapped in waxed cheese paper, which achieves the best possible balance between maintaining humidity around the cheese and allowing it to breathe. We are happy to provide some free extra cheese paper, just search for "cheese paper" and add it to your basket. We don't recommend cling film or foil as it can cause the cheese to sweat which will negatively affect the flavour.

Easter treat

We decided to swap Easter eggs for cheese and we absolutely made the right decision. The order from Neal's Yard came on the requested day and the quality of the cheese was outstanding. We particularly enjoyed the Ticklemore but the Ragstone, Montgomery's Cheddar and the Cornish Yarg was also delicious. Will definitely go back for more

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback Jackie. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the cheeses and the delivery didn't disappoint.
Kind regards,
NYD
