Cahills Porter
From:
$9.82
Cahills Porter is made from pasteurized cow's milk and is considered a vegetarian cheese because a vegetable rennet is used. It goes without saying that a dark beer is an appropriate accompaniment.
The blending of cheddar with porter is both striking to the eye and easy on the palate. Pebble-size curds are veined with dark-brown porter beer, creating a rich, marbled appearance. The porter does not overwhelm the cheddar; indeed Cahills Porter tastes only slightly beery, with the porter contributing depth and meatiness to the cheese. The fantastic looking gourmet cheese is a full-flavored and tangy cheddar that is slightly pungent with a firm texture.
A striking addition to any cheese board,...

Cashel Blue
From:

Cashel Blue was the first Irish blue cheese, named after the Rock of Cashel overlooking the pastures close to the cheese farm of the family Grubb.

Not For Sale - for Informational Purposes Only
Durrus Irish Farmhouse Cheese is a raw milk cheese, made by Jeffa Gill since 1979 in the beautiful upland valley of Coomkeen on the Sheep’s Head peninsula, in the far south-west of Ireland.
Durrus is a lovely coral-colored, semi-soft, washed-rind cheese, made from the milk of local herds.
