Hamstone is another delightful addition to the Whitelake repertoire. Made from Guernsey cow’s milk, Hamstone has a delicate flavour and a creamy, soft texture. This lactic semi-soft cheese has a stunning golden colour boasting a delicate velvety centre and matures into a gooey liquid around the mould-ripened rind.
