Wookey Hole Cave Aged Cheddar

What is Wookey Hole Cave Aged Cheddar Cheese?

Wookey Hole Farmhouse Cheddar is a cave-aged cheese matured in the Wookey Hole Caves in Somerset, England. The traditional West Country Farmhouse Cheddar is made in Dorset using vegetarian rennet and pasteurized cow's milk from local herds grazing on lush pastures. Then the cheese is wrapped in cloth and aged in the caves at a constant temperature for up to six months.

Protected by PDO (Protected Designation of Origin), it can only be produced and matured in Dorset, Somerset, Devon, and Cornwall. This cheddar boasts a creamy yet crumbly texture, with earthy characteristics and a distinctly nutty, tangy flavor. It's brilliant when paired with a good ale!
