Cheese Range


Old Shire

This is our very best quality cheddar. All cheese is first graded at around six weeks after production and only the very best of all that is produced is selected to mature on to make the Vintage Special Reserve grade used for Old Shire. The maturing process can take anything up to 18 months – but, it's definitely worth waiting for!


The end product is sure to impress any cheese connoisseur. The smooth-textured cheese has a tangy, clean, balanced and full-bodied flavour; ideal eaten on its own or as an excellent ingredient in special recipes. Available as a 200g pre-pack, 2.5kg, 5kg waxed deli block and 200g waxed truckle.


Old Shire is also available with added leek to further bolster our Welsh roots. It is available at selected major supermarkets and also from our online shop.


Dragon Cheddar

Our red and green dragons depict a good quality Welsh Cheddar. The green dragon pack is a mild cheddar, and you've guessed it, the red dragon pack is mature. This range is available in a 220g pre-pack and also 2.5kg and 5kg deli blocks. An ideal product for export; it's the epitome of Welshness! Available at selected major supermarkets and also from our online shop.

Caws Llŷn and SCC Branded Cheeses

Caws Llŷn means 'cheese from the Llŷn Peninsula'. It is a good quality locally produced mature white cheddar. Our range of branded cheese includes Cheshire, mild and mature Cheddar, Double Gloucester and Red Leicester. These are all available as pre-packs or deli blocks. The Caws Llŷn range is predominantly available at local North `west Wales stores whereas our own branded cheeses are in local convenience stores, delis and food service companies. Alternatively visit our online shop.


Monterey Jack

This cheese is made to a traditional American recipe using different starter cultures and a different process to making Cheddar. This mild, white cheese is renowned for its 'melt-ability' so is perfect for cooking or using at barbecues, on pizzas or in Mexican recipes. Its mild flavour and soft texture give it huge kid-appeal, and we have won many awards as proof of this. The Monterey Jack which is packed as wheels or rectangular blocks is hand waxed in distinctive red wax.
This product is also popular with food manufacturers due to its versatility when cooking. More information is available from our bulk cheese page.
Our traditional cheese-making methods coupled with our locally sourced milk make our range both unique and of superior quality


Spreadable Welsh Rarebit

We couldn't make it more Welsh if we tried! Our Spreadable Welsh Rarebit (Caws Pobi) is a convenient twist on the traditional Welsh delicacy. To ensure the spreadable cheese has an authentic flavour we've added Welsh beer and Welsh mustard. This product doesn't have to be reserved just as a toast-topper; it can be smothered and baked on top of steaks, chicken and even smoked fish or delicately stirred into potatoes to make a creamy, cheesy mash. Some recommend it heated and used as a cheese fondue, or baked on top of oysters or smoked mussels to create a delicious cheese crust.


The spreadable cheese is packed into a 250g round plastic tub with a card sleeve.


Available at selected major supermarkets and also from our online shop.


Caerphilly

We're one of the few Welsh companies making this most famous Welsh Cheese! Caerphilly was traditionally eaten by miners as a good source of protein and to replenish salt, today it used as a good replacement for Feta in a Greek Salad. Our Caerphilly is a fresh, white cheese with a delicate, creamy texture.

Available at selected major supermarkets and also from our online shop.
