Description
Vintage Red Fox is a Red Leicester style cheese with a distinct crunch. It has a smooth, sweet, mellow flavour and a flaky, open texture. Like other red cheeses, it takes its colour from annatto, a flavourless natural dye from a South American plant.
It is hand-made at Belton Farm in Shropshire by the Beckett family, using a unique recipe developed over many years. The family have been crafting cheeses at Belton Farm since 1922, sourcing salt from local Cheshire salt mines and using closely guarded, bespoke cultures.
Allergen advice: this product contains annatto.
How much to buy
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.
Delivery
Your cheese is cut fresh to order, wrapped and packed by hand and delivered on the day you choose. We deliver across the UK from Tuesday to Friday each week. If you are ordering for a gift or special occasion we advise you to always allow an extra day in case of any unforeseen courier delays.
