Oxford Isis
What is Oxford Isis Cheese?
Oxford Isis is a pasteurized cow's milk cheese made by the Oxford Cheese Company in the Oxford region of England. Named after the River Thames, known as the Isis which flows from the Cotswolds to Oxford, this cheese is sticky, smelly, and strong. It starts as a soft, creamy cheese, then is regularly washed in mead made from Oxfordshire honey. Mead, an alcoholic beverage, is fermented from honey, yeast, and water. This washing process results in a sticky rind and a powerfully pungent aroma in the cheese.
Oxford Isis is an English version of the pungent washed-rind French cheeses.
