Kerrygold, the Irish cheese crafters that produce Blarney and Dubliner, make a spectacular, limited production two-year aged Vintage Cheddar. Encased in black wax to differentiate it from less-aged Cheddars, this special cheddar is the result of a careful grading process such that only the best are allowed to bear the "Vintage" label. This connoisseur's cheddar, notable for its rich, rounded flavor and firm, smooth body, deserves a place on the cheese board alongside your choice of the world's other great cheeses.

Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

A delightful cheese. Served on soda crackers, it's just the right taste for a snack. Served with a good German beer, it can't be beaten.

Comments about Kerrygold Aged Cheddar:

This cheese, just like an aged parmigiano, has lactic acid crystals throughout its interior. Perhaps due to the aging process, it is just as easy to digest as a good parmigiano. This is good news for our lactose-intolerant family members!

Comments about Kerrygold Aged Cheddar:

When I "mentally taste" perfect cheddar, the flavor of this cheddar is what I taste. I found nothing objectional about it in any of the ways I used it: slices with apples or pears; the family favorite, macaroni and cheese; shredded in salads; and my favorite, an accompaniment to a good glass of red wine and a thick slice of homemade bread. We love it!

This is a very good Irish Cheddar. For a simple but yet satisfying meal, try the Cheddar with artisan/crusty Rye/Whole Wheat or even French Bread.
