Cave Aged Cheddar

Made by Ford Farm cheesemakers!

The cave-aged cheddar cheese is carried by hand, two hundred feet underground into the Wookey Hole Caves in the Mendip Hills where they are left to mature.

As the cheese matures, it absorbs the essence of the underground world around it! Developing a distinctive character that sets it apart from ordinary cheddars.

How it’s made

The stunning cave-aged Cheddar is created at Ford Farm Cheesemakers.

The Cheddar starts life at the local dairy in Dorset, where they are made using milk from local herds.
