Product Information
Pyengana Goat Milk Cheddar is a handmade cloth bound cheddar. The cheese is wrapped in muslin cloth to protect the surface of the cheese. The cheese is then sealed with lard to prevent it from drying out. It is then rubbed and turned each week. Pyengana Cheddar is matured in the cellar under the cheese factory in a cave like environment. Natural air ventilation is used to draw cool air 1 km down an underground tunnel to maintain a consistent temperature and an ideal environment for maturing cheddar cheese.
As the cheese matures it develops a strong flavour, it has a crumbly body and a full flavoured bite. Aged for 6 months.
