Full description

A traditional, clothbound Red Leicester made in Leicestershire using pasteurised cow’s milk and vegetarian rennet. Buttered and wrapped in cloth before ageing, it develops a firm yet creamy texture and a deep, russet‑orange colour from natural annatto. The flavour is mellow, nutty, and gently sweet with a warm, savoury finish that becomes more pronounced as it matures. A beautifully made heritage cheese with real depth and character — perfect for cheeseboards, sandwiches, and cooking.
