Shepherd's Purse - Olde York
Refreshingly soft creamy cheese made with milk from the noblest English ewes.
Olde York is a soft white cheese made using the coulommier method. After gently layering the curds into the moulds, they leave them to set under their own weight. The resulting delicate texture means Olde York slices easily straight from the fridge. Or if you let it stand a while, it warms to an indulgently creamy spreadability. They wax Olde York to preserve its fresh flavour and texture, and the cheese’s many accolades include being chosen for British Airways' Concorde menu in the 1990s. Olde York, along with Yorkshire Fettle, was part of our inaugural cheese range from the 1980s, and both remain firm favourites.
