About Teviotdale Cheese
Teviotdale Cheese is a full-fat hard cheese made from unpasteurized Jersey cow’s milk in the borderlands of England and Scotland. It has a cylindrical shape with a white coating and a natural yellow color. The cheese has a smooth, salty, and tangy flavor. It undergoes a traditional production process that includes pressing, brining for 9 hours, and daily turning during a 15-day maturation period. The milk comes exclusively from the designated area, where the local grasses and herbs influence its flavor. The cheese has been made on the same farm using traditional methods since 1983. The microbial flora in the dairy contributes to its distinct characteristics.
