This rich and creamy mature cheddar (formerly known as Tasty Cheddar) is made by the Alvis brothers for us.
It's a great everyday cheese - but it's organic, so naturally, we think it's better than your common or garden Cheddar.
It has a rich, full flavour with a lovely mellow aftertaste. It is deliciously versatile as it sits as well on a cheeseboard as it does on a slice of toast (proper toast from a handmade loaf, of course)!
Down at the foot of the Mendip Hills in Somerset, Peter and John Alvis have helped orchestrate a stunning environment in which their dairy cattle can graze. Over the past fifteen years, they’ve planted over 12,000 trees, numerous hedgerows, they’ve created ponds and renovated waterways, all of which has drawn wildlife to the farm and painted wild flower meadows across the fields.
Their dairy cows love it! Of course all those gorgeous flowers and rich grasses make for the tastiest milk, which they employ, using old-fashioned cheddar-making skills, to make this Tasty Cheddar.

To make the perfect cheese sandwich you will need to ensure your cheddar is kept refrigerated. Once the packet has been opened it should be closely wrapped as any exposed parts will dry out and become crumbly. Not suitable for home freezing.
