Baby Yoredale

The miniature version of our larger Yoredale wheels. This cheese comes wrapped in its original cloth bandage. Approx 1kg.

Yoredale is a classic British territorial cheese, made on farms in Wensleydale for hundreds of years. Unlike modern crumbly Wensleydale, we use a slower, historic recipe which leads to a softer, creamy, buttery texture. It has all the lemon yogurt acidity you would expect from a Wensleydale, with mineral, earthy tones closer to the rind.

It is clothbound and aged for 2-3 months, allowing it to develop a natural rind. Everything is done by hand with care and attention - the cheese is turned and rubbed down weekly to ensure even maturation. 

Pair with: Handmade fruitcake and a thick layer of butter.
