Pasteurised Cow's MILK, Salt, Cheese Cultures, Animal Rennet
Jeffa Gill, the creator of Durrus, was part of a pioneering network of women who sought to reinvigorate the art of farmhouse cheesemaking in Ireland in the 1970s.
The milk used to make Durrus has come from the same herd for over 30 years. The milk is heated in a copper vat from Europe which encourages the milk to heat up evenly. The vat is raised so that the curds can be gently gravity fed into the moulds, which contributes to its delicate texture. Durrus was first made by Jeffa Gill in the 1970s and is now made by her daughter Sarah Hennessy.
Durrus is kept in our warmest maturing room along with our other washed rind cheeses. The warmth and humidity of this room encourages the flavour and aroma of this cheese.
