The cheese is very distinctive in appearance being a round cheese coated in black wax. Crumbly, with a moist creamy texture yet strong flavour resulting from the cheese being matured over two years.
What makes Lancashire Cheese so special?
For centuries, Lancashire dairy farmers’ wives made cheese from surplus milk. On small farms, there was insufficient milk from a single days milking to make a cheese, and so each day’s milk was curdled and accumulated for several days until there was enough curd to make a cheese. Two or three days’ curd of varying maturity are then blended together, giving Lancashire cheeses a distinctive character. Making a unique cheeses that can sit proudly amongst all British cheeses.
