Product details & serving guidance
15-Year-Aged Cheddar - Cheese Brothers
Fifteen years is a long time to wait for a piece of cheese, and Cheese Brothers made you wait for it. What comes out is a very sharp, very intense cheddar with a firm texture that sometimes breaks into crumbles.
Fifteen years aged — the longest aging in the Cheese Brothers lineup, released after a decade and a half.
Very sharp — a clean, bracing acidity rather than a sour one.
Firm and crumbly — the extended cure dries the paste, so expect shards as much as slices.
Cow milk and animal rennet — a traditional cheddar make, made in the United States.
Five ounce cut — enough for a serious tasting board without committing to a whole wedge.
How to enjoy Eat it on its own first, with nothing in the way. Then try it with dried fruit, a slice of fresh apple, or a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. It also grates into a sauce beautifully if you can bear to use it that way.
One for the people who think they have had sharp cheddar before.
