David & Jo Clarke of Upton England make this traditional English cheese much in the same manner as it was originally done in 1745. The Clarkes set out to restore the reputation of a cheese that had been known primarily as a generic factory cheese for generations. Their creation has a rich creamy mouth feel with a nutty quality and just a hint of the grassy tang found in the best farmhouse Cheddars. A cheese this rich in flavor is a testament to the cheesemaker's effort to rediscover a part of English culinary history.
