Award winning, delicious handmade hard and semi-hard cheeses from the Somerset Cheese Company
Sheep, Goat, Buffalo and Cow's cheese
The Somerset Cheese Company makes a range of hard and semi hard cheeses from all types of milk, including sheep, goat, buffalo and cow’s, including Channel Island milk.
Most of our cheeses are mould ripened in the traditional farmhouse way, whilst Rainbows Gold is wash-rinded. This means that the cheeses are wiped in a solution of ‘Golden Chalice’ ale and a ripening bacteria. This produces a distinctive golden rind which is pungent and sticky.
Other cheeses are sent to a professional smokery for gentle, cold oak smoking.
You can be sure that all our cheeses are made with strict attention to detail and due diligence, and also, all are made using vegetarian rennet.
We provide cheese for:
- Wholesale
- Restaurants and Delicatessens
- Farmers Markets
- Contract Making
- Individuals
I bought your Truffler and Pendragon cheeses this morning at Keynsham Farmers Market.
OMG! Totally exceeded expectations- both of them absolutely delicious.
The Truffler packed full of flavour and fabulous texture, no holding back on truffles and The Pendragon smooth, sharp – as expected from buffalo milk – Just delicious!I’ve signed up for your emails and am looking forward to seeing you at the next Keynsham Farmers Market.
Thank you
