Cheese, ALL Cheddars
Well respected by cheese connoisseurs, the Isle of Man Dairy has been producing exceptional cheese since 1934. The milk supplied by the island's dairy herds is distinctively creamy, and is one of the secrets behind the award winning taste of their range of innovative cheeses. Once they've delivered fresh milk to all corners of the Isle of Man, the dairy uses the remaining 70% of their milk to produce our award winning range of cheeses - all of which reflect the traditional skills and long culinary heritage of the enchanting island. The lush grass and rolling landscape of the Island are ideal for dairy cows. Add to this the care and attention of dedicated farmers and you have happy and healthy cows producing exceptional quality milk. It is this milk that makes the Cheeses of the Isle of Man range so creamy and full of flavor.

Comments about Isle of Man Flavored Cheddars:
Great in recipes - the ingredients don't overpower the creamy taste of the cheddar. I found some nice recipes on their website [...] Nice to see that the milk is sourced locally from their dairy co-operative.
