Cheese > Cheese Irish Porter Cheddar

 

Don't be afraid of this unique looking cheese! This Cheddar made with local Stout Beer is rich, creamy and flavourful. It is perfect St. Patrick's Day - or any other day!

 

This Irish cheese has been produced by Marion Cahill at Cahill's Farm in Limerick, Ireland since the early 1980's. Cahill has developed a large range of flavored cheddars, the Irish Porter Cheddar being one of the prized favourites! This unique cheese is made with a sharp, white Irish cheddar and a Guinness-brewer Porter which when folded together create the visually stunning brown mosaic pattern showcased in the paste of the cheese. The flavours are full, chocolatey, rich and tangy with a slightly pungent finish. It is made from pasteurized cow's milk and vegetable rennet, which make this porter cheese vegetarian. The wheels are covered in a rich brown wax.

 

Irish Porter Cheddar makes a bold statement on a cheese board while it also makes a great grilled cheese! Utilise it as you might your very favourite aged cheddar!

 

There is no better match for the Irish Porter Cheddar than a chilled pint of Guinness stout or Irish porter.
