Yoredale Wensleydale

€11,90
Includes VAT

Yoredale Wensleydale cheese is a traditional Yorkshire cheese, known for its crumbly texture and fresh, slightly citrusy flavour.

Aged for 3-4 months, the cheese is smooth and buttery in texture, with a lemony yoghurt-like acidity and mineral, earthy notes near the rind. The milk they use comes from local farmer Will, who keeps a small herd of Holstein and Ayrshire cows. The cows graze outdoors as long as the Yorkshire weather allows, usually from April to November. In winter, they eat silage produced on the farm, which gives the milk a sweeter flavour that is also passed on to the cheese.

Did you know that Wensleydale is Wallace and Gromit's favorite cheese - and it was this knowledge that saved the entire Wensleydale manufacturing company from bankruptcy in the 1990s?

MEET THE PRODUCER

​Curlew Dairy is a small, traditional cheese dairy in Wensleydale, in the Yorkshire Dales, England. It was founded by Ben and Sam, who started making cheese in 2019. They left behind their finance jobs in Manchester and moved to the countryside in search of a quieter life. In early 2022, they set up Curlew Dairy, their small cheese dairy in Wensley. Their main product is Yoredale Wensleydale, a traditional British cheese, made by hand in small batches from unpasteurised milk. Curlew Dairy’s cheese dairy is a true ‘micro’ cheese dairy, measuring just 6x3 metres, and is located in their garage. Their cheese has received acclaim and is now sold in a number of independent cheese shops across the UK. In 2024, Yoredale Wensleydale won a gold medal at the British Cheese Awards. Ben and Sam's dedication to traditional cheesemaking methods and high-quality ingredients has made Curlew Dairy a respected cheese factory, representing the best traditions of British cheesemaking.
