Raw Goat's MILK, Salt, Cheese Cultures, Animal Rennet
The St Tola we sell is made especially for us with fresh goats milk which is never chilled before the cheese is produced.
St Tola is produced by former-schoolteacher-turned-cheesemaker Siobhán Ní Gháirbhith and her small team in the town of Inagh just south of The Burren in County Clare. Made with goat's milk from the farm's herd of Saanen and Toggenburg goats, it is a mild and creamy cheese when young, but becomes firmer and more pungent as it ages.
The St Tola we sell is made to a special recipe for us, using uncooled morning milk and a little extra salt. As ours is made in a smaller batch than usual, the cheesemakers can gently mix the curds and salt by hand. On arrival, St Tola is dried in our drying room to stabilise and develop the rind. It is then turned every day for the first week it is with us, and every few days thereafter until it is ready to sell. We continue to provide feedback on this cheese, a process helped by the farm's practice of keeping samples back from each batch they send us to taste alongside us.
