Clau d’ ville Cheddar

Description

Clau d´ville Cheddar – traditional cheddar with local terroir

Clau d´ville Clothbound Cheddar teases the taste buds at every stage of its development.  Bright, citric flavors at the six-month mark complement a smooth, creamy texture. As each cheese approaches its first birthday the pineapple notes give way to a deeper, more savory cheese with a buttery, malty finish, offering a delightful taste sensation. Inspired by the classic English clothbound cheddar cheeses that were bandaged in cheesecloth and cave-aged, Clau d´ville Clothbound Cheddar is aged from six months to a year or more. At six months it is smooth and almost creamy. Aged a year or longer, it becomes deliciously crunchy, crumbly and tangy. Pair it with a fruity Pinot Noir, a strong ale, apple liqueur or cider, or a vintage port.

In an age where most people only have access to bland food from industrial agriculture, we’re proud to call ourselves your local farmers. We milk the cows ourselves, make cheese by hand, produce nutrient-dense food and heal the earth. And we create food that has a real sense of terroir…that local taste that can only be created from our rich southern Virginia soils and forages.
