Product description

An extra few months’ maturing does wonderful things to this rich, rounded cheddar, producing a complex balance of flavours. Matured to perfection for 18-21 months, every truckle is handcrafted and cloth-bound by a team of nine expert cheese-makers. With layer after layer of mouth-watering flavours, this Cheddar is a classic companion to Cabernet Sauvignon. It’s great for cooking with, too, bringing distinctive Devonshire richness to soufflé and pesto.

Origins

At Quicke's, they understand that great cheese-making is an art. They have been nurturing the family's land at Home Farm for 14 generations, crafting the very finest flavours they can from this idyllic corner of Devon. They carefully manage these ancient pastures, feeding their specially-bred cows on lush grass year-round so that they give them the very best milk, its subtle shifts in flavour a true expression of the landscape from which it came. Every morning they collect this milk and use time-honoured methods, passed down through the generations, to create their magnificent Cheddar. Each truckle is handmade, cloth-bound and slow-matured to perfection in the cool quiet of their ripening rooms. They're passionate about what they do, and proud of every award-winning cheese they make. Whilst their Buttery Cheddar reaches perfection in as little as three months, they're happy to let Quicke's Vintage develop for a full two years, making it the country's longest-matured clothbound cheddar. After all, you can't rush greatness.
