A round up of some classic, delicious Somerset cheeses.

Montgomery Cheddar

Approximately 12 months old. This is one of the UK’s best traditional cheddars, made on the same family farm in Somerset for 4 generations, using an unpasteurized milk from the farm’s own herd and a traditional rennet.

Bath Blue

A delicious, vibrant blue cheese made by the Bath Soft Cheese Company. Handmade to a traditional Stilton recipe in small batches on Kelston Park Farm, it has a softer texture than Stilton and a citrusy note on the palate. Made using pasteurised, organic cow milk and a traditional animal rennet.

Mini Katherine

Katherine is washed in a local Somerset Cider Brandy, which helps develop flavour and also attain a certain consistency, which is smooth and close in texture. The firm texture has a pleasing bounce. The cheese uses a traditional animal rennet which increases it’s depth of flavour.

Kelston Park
