Description: Orkney Island Cheddar is cow's milk Cheddar crafted only from the milk sourced from the Orkney Isles. Flavor-wise, it is characterised by moderate levels of sharp acid notes, rounded taste and savoury, nutty notes. It always has a clean aroma with a firm but malleable texture which is smooth and closed. All Cheddar cheeses are matured for 6 to 18 months, providing a variety of flavor profiles. Medium Cheddar aged for 6-12 months is creamy and mellow with slightly savoury flavor. The paste is bright even color with a smooth and malleable texture. The cheese will be white or colored, wherein the bright color comes from a vegetable color pigment added after pasteurization. Cheddar has always been a favourite on cheeseboards but also tastes delicious on sandwiches.
