Real Yorkshire Wensleydale
White Wensleydale cheese has a mild, slightly sweet flavour with a honey aftertaste, whereas blue Wensleydale is robust in flavour.
Originally Wensleydale was sold either 'fresh' - white, or 'ripe' - blue. White Wensleydale cheese is only ripened for 3 weeks and is made from a lightly pressed, finely cut curd leaving a high moisture content giving a slightly crumbly, flaky texture. The celebrated Blue Veined Wensleydale requires six months to mature. It has a smooth creamy texture similar to Stilton but with a mellower flavour.
Hand made Real Yorkshire Wensleydale cheese is made from milk drawn from cows grazing the sweet limestone pastures on
surrounding farms in Upper Wensleydale. This gives the cheese the unique flavour for which it is renowned. The cheese is a fresh, young cheese taken at only three weeks old - it has a clean, mild, slightly sweet flavour with a honeyed aftertaste. The superb texture of fresh Wensleydale is perfectly complemented by the addition of natural ingredients of the finest quality.
