English

Our English cheeses which have been flavoured are based on traditional, territorial cheeses. These cheeses are made by adding additional ingredients to subtly change the flavour. The extra ingredients have been added into the milk or curd during the process of making the cheese.

Generally English flavoured cheeses are either Cheddar or Wensleydale based but you do occasionally see White Stilton with flavourings too.

Most flavour added cheeses are well-known hard cheeses with mixed fruits, spices or herbs, and shaped into a round. These cheeses are usually hard or crumbly cheeses. The key to a good quality flavoured cheese is not to let the flavouring take away from the quality of the original cheese. The flavourings should add a different dimension to the cheese.
