Ticklemore

Ticklemore is one of Sharpham Dairy's most distinctive and best-loved cheeses. Made from local goats milk, it comes as a striking white, drum-shaped wheel with a gentle natural rind. The texture is firm yet moist, with a slightly crumbly bite that softens on the tongue.

The flavour is clean and fresh, with subtle citrus notes and a delicate nuttiness that gains complexity as it matures. Unlike some stronger goats cheeses, Ticklemore has a refined, balanced character that makes it approachable even for people who do not usually reach for goat.

Sharpham Dairy is a family-run creamery owned by Greg and Nicky Parsons. Cheesemaking began on the Sharpham Estate in 1982, just over the hill from where the dairy now stands, and the team still handcrafts cheese in the South Devon countryside by the River Dart. In 2022 Sharpham became the UK's first cheesemaker certified as a B Corporation.

A whole cheese weighs approximately 1.6kg.

All cheeses are hand cut, therefore the weights listed are approximate. We work very hard to cut them as accurately as we can and happy to offer advice on purchasing the right amount if you are unsure. If you would like a price for larger weights or whole cheeses, please call us.

We send our cheese by Royal Mail Tracked 24, with next-day delivery available across all UK postcodes for £4.99 per parcel. Orders over £60 qualify for free delivery.

We carefully pack every order to help keep your cheese in the best possible condition during transit. Royal Mail are very reliable, and most parcels arrive within 24 hours, but occasional delays can happen.

If you’re ordering cheese for a special occasion, party or event, we recommend having it delivered a couple of days beforehand. This gives you some extra time in case of an unexpected courier delay and allows the cheese to rest and reach its best before serving.

We currently deliver throughout the UK but do not offer international delivery.

Every order is cut and packed by hand, fresh to order by our team of cheesemongers.

Your cheese is wrapped in breathable waxed paper, which allows it to breathe while helping to protect it during transit and in your fridge. It is then placed inside a thermal foil pouch with a frozen gel pack to keep it cool on its journey. The gel pack will naturally defrost during transit; this is completely normal.

Finally, everything is carefully packed into a branded box to keep your order safe and presentable when it arrives.

We’re also conscious of the environmental impact of packaging. Around 95% of our packaging is recyclable or reusable, and we’re continually looking for ways to reduce waste and make our business more sustainable. We believe great cheese should be enjoyed with consideration for the planet, too.

Perfect on a board with a crisp white, a light rosé or a good cider. It also melts well and brings a bright, savoury lift to salads and vegetarian dishes.
