Grafton Clothbound Cheddar

Grafton’s signature Clothbound Cheddar is wrapped in cheesecloth and cave-aged for a minimum of 7 months, a traditional method used for centuries in Britain and the pre-industrialized US. Aging in cloth allows this cheese to take on a deeper variety of flavors than its plastic-aged counterparts, and at a younger age. The texture is firm and creamy with a tendency to crumble.

Clothbound Cheddar has a mottled gray rind with aromas of cave, mushrooms, and fresh butter. Flavors are similar to a traditional English cheddar: grassy, nutty notes dominate with some lemony accents and a smooth, lactic body that carries on through a meaty finish.

Best served as a table cheese, or mixed with younger cheeses to add depth to a melted blend for cooking. Create a ploughman’s lunch of Clothbound Cheddar with a spicy tomato chutney, cured meats and pickles.
