Raw Cow
Neal's Yard Dairy
The Montgomery family has been producing hand-made cheese on Manor Farm of Somerset for generations. This authentic cheddar of raw cow milk is made by a traditional recipe into hulking 60 pound cylinders. They are wrapped with linen and rubbed with lard before cellaring for a year or more. By creating only 13 of these beasts a day, the family offers especially high quality cheddar with perfectly balanced sharpness and depth of nutty, fruity flavor. Neal's Yard Dairy buys half of Montgomery's annual make, ensuring the finest wheels with a wide spectrum of nuanced flavor. Our favorite tasting note? "Sometimes reminiscent of the caramelised edge of a Sunday roast." Love the Brits. Love Monty's. Though traditionally paired with "Claret" (Bordeaux), Montgomery's is proof positive that cheddar and beer pairings can be some of the most gratifying.
