Description

Comes in a 5kg round, 9 inches across. It is ripened for about 8- 12 weeks, and has a creamy smooth texture with very small holes, eyes, to be seen evenly distributed throughout. In terms of a make, it is a washed curd cheese, more continental, closer to a Gouda, but not typical. Technically it is a hard cheese because it has been pressed, it is generally described as semi-hard because at 10 weeks it still has some movement in it, great for melting.

The Lyburn Gold has consistently won prizes at the British Cheese Awards over the last twenty years, and 2016 adds another Silver, 2017 another Gold and 2018 a Silver.
