The bold flavour of Calon Wen’s Extra Mature Cheddar holds nothing back, upping the ante of every sauce, sandwich and cheeseboard. That depth of flavour begins with the rich, buttery milk produced by organic dairy herds grazing on clover-rich pastures all throughout the Welsh countryside. Their top-quality, organic milk makes for a deliciously rich cheese that’s then aged until a robust, tangy taste develops. Top your toasties with a few generous slices to enjoy a crispy, bubbling layer of cheesy satisfaction.

Producer
Though they started out as a small farm, Calon Wen are now Wales’ leading organic dairy cooperative. As their family grows, so too have their ambitions. While their cows graze on clover-rich, un-treated pastures, making deliciously creamy milk, the farmers have preserved ungrazed wildflower margins for pollinators to return to as part of the ‘Pasture for Pollinators’ programme. Now, 73 species of bees, butterflies and other bugs have returned in a brilliant display of biodiversity.
