Graffham Down
sszThe Graffham Down is a raw milk cheese made from the milk of our 100% grass-fed cows. This is one of our larger wheels of cheeses, aged for a minimum of two months.
The Graffham Down has a deep earthy, nutty flavour and yielding texture. Many regard the Graffham Down as our strongest tasting cheese. If we were to compare it to any existing cheese it would be a Tomme de Savoie.
Our cheesemaking process is slow and low input, relying on a strong fermentation of our milk to achieve the best flavours.
As our milk is 100% grass-fed, we respect this in our cheese-making and handle the curd with great care, gently hand-ladling into moulds.
We want our cheese to be a real reflection of our terroir; the land, the weather, the animals, what flora the animals are eating at that specific point in time.
Sold as a wedge approximately 100g. Any mould spots growing on/in the cheese are a result of the natural ageing process, and safe to eat (within the use by date). Due to the 100% grass-fed nature of our milk, the cheese can vary from wheel to wheel in appearance, taste and texture; you may never get the same cheese twice!
Our Milk
Our Milk
Our cheese is made daily from the milk of our cows. Our cheesemaking process runs concurrent to us milking the cows and thus the milk could not be fresher!
The cows are 100% grass-fed and therefore their feed varies over the seasons as the different plants are growing.
