Discovering the Rich Diversity of British Cheeses


Cheese has been at the heart of British culture for generations. From farmsteads to modern dairies, there is no doubt that the story of British cheese-making is a story of passion. At The Cheese Chuckling Company, our mission is simple- to introduce you to the rich diversity of British cheeses. Join us as we explore through centuries of tradition and cheese-making innovation.
 

The Art of British Cheese Making

Cheesemaking in Britain is a century-old tradition. It is more than just a culinary craft. Generations of skilled artisans have passed down their knowledge of cheese making, resulting in the ultimate results of varieties you see today.

One thing that sets British cheese apart is its balance between innovation and tradition. This balance has allowed the smooth transition of cheese-making knowledge into modern-world techniques. This syngamy gives British cheese its unique character.

Now, let's embark on a virtual tour of the United Kingdom, where each region boasts its own distinct cheese culture and flavours.

1. Cheddar: In the heart of Somerset, you'll find the bedrock of Cheddar cheese, known for its sharp, crumbly texture and earthy flavours. Cheddar's versatility makes it a favourite for sandwiches, platters, and more.

2. Stilton: Stilton cheese is known for its creamy, crumbly blue veins. Are you around the East Midlands? It would be best if you tried Stilton cheese.

3. Red Leicester: In Leicestershire, you'll encounter the vibrant Red Leicester, a cheese with a distinctive orange hue and a mild, nutty taste. It's perfect for adding colour to your cheeseboard.

4. Double Gloucester: Head west to Gloucestershire to experience the buttery goodness of Double Gloucester cheese. Its rich, full flavour and creamy texture make it a delightful addition to any dish.

5. Wensleydale: Up in Yorkshire, Wensleydale cheese reigns supreme. Known for its clean, mild taste and crumbly texture, it pairs wonderfully with fruit or on its own.

6. Lancashire: In the northwest, Lancashire cheese shines with its crumbly texture and a spectrum of flavours, from creamy to tangy.

7. Dorset Blue Vinny: In Dorset, you'll discover the characterful Dorset Blue Vinny cheese, with its strong blue veining and robust flavour profile.
