Product details & Ingredients

About Mount Leinster Raw Milk Cheddar

• The flavour is sweet and fruity when young, and develops more complex nutty notes as the cheese ages.
• The milk we use to make Coolattin Cheddar is special for a number of reasons.
• We process it in the summer months when the cows are grazing fresh clover-rich pasture only which is the ideal diet for cheese processing milk.
• We use early morning milk which is high in melatonin which aids relaxation and sleep.
• It is pumped directly to the cheese vat, not stored or pasteurised.
• Thus the natural goodness and flavour is preserved by our traditional cheese-making process.
• We add beneficial Lacto-bacilli and Rennet to our milk, the curd is cut, scalded, drained & pitched. The cheddar is milled, salted and mixed by hand.
• Following this, we place it in 40b moulds and press it for 2 days. The cheese is matured over a year at 10°C.”
• During this time the unique combination of enzymes and proteins interacts to create a gourmet experience of aroma, texture and full flavour which develops slowly from sweet fruit to a full nutty note.
• To get the best from Coolattin Cheddar, store it in a cool place and taste it at room temperature.
• Produced by Coolattin Cheddar.
