Brue Valley Farms celebrate 50 years of cheesemaking To celebrate fifty glorious years of cheese making, the team at Brue Valley Farms has created a new extra-mature Farmhouse Cheddar, exclusively for Marks & Spencer. The new recipe Cheddar is rich and full flavoured in the true farmhouse tradition, making it ideal for Britain’s cheese lovers who crave a really flavoursome, strong-tasting cheese with a lingering finish. The Clapp family has been farming at Brue Valley Farms since the 11th Century. Their Farmhouse Cheddar is traditionally made from the milk from Brue Valley’s own dairy herd, with the cheese makers relying on skills and practises handed down from generation to generation. Employing these traditional methods results in a cheese that delivers powerful, complex flavours. To celebrate supplying Marks and Spencer’s, for the past twenty five years, a delicious new recipe Farmhouse Cheddar has also been created exclusively for the store. This new recipe shows off the quality and flavour of this specialist cheese and has a slightly softer flavour than previous blends, aiming to appeal both to purists as well as those trying a stronger cheese for the first time. The makers say that this cheese is best enjoyed on a chunk of warm crusty bread or with a glass of fruity red wine as an after dinner treat and we certainly agree, butwe also love it with a sweet, chunky mango chutney.
