FORD FARM CHEDDAR WOOKEY HOLE CAVE AGED 454G

Ford Farm has revived the ancient practice of maturing cheese in caves, creating a wonderful strong, earthy cheddar in the process. Young cheeses are wrapped in cloth and taken deep into the nearby Wookey Hole caves, where the constant temperature and humidity provides the perfect maturing conditions. As it ages it takes on some of the flavour and atmosphere of the caves, which gives it that delicious moist earthiness.
