Lightly Oak Smoked

This cheese is based on the Lyburn Gold, still a washed curd cheese but the eyes are not so prominent and is smoother, to give a light and delicate flavour. For those that enjoy a heavily smoked cheese, this may not suit. During the maturation process the rind goes a glorious caramel colour and can’t be mistaken for any other. It should be noted that until the middle of 2024 this cheese had an egg allergen warning, but this is no longer the case and is egg, (Lysozyme), free. We attend a lot of Hampshire Farmers Markets each week and customers come to buy our smoked cheese, as they love it, it costs twice as much as re-processed flavoured cheese, but the young cheese is taken to a local smoker, half a ton at a time, left there for a couple of days and then we have to return to collect it. It all costs money. So my message to customers is half the quantity, double the quality, and it then costs the same.
