Squeaky Cheese

Artisanal Cheese by Yorkshire Dama Cheese, Sowerby Bridge. 

Yorkshire Dama Cheese is celebrated for its artisanal approach to cheese-making and its unique offerings, including the popular Yorkshire 'Squeaky Cheese.' The company’s rich history began when founders Razan Alsous and her husband Raghid immigrated to the UK from Syria in 2012. Bringing with them a deep passion for cheese-making and a wealth of traditional techniques, they set out to create a new chapter in their lives and in the world of cheese.

The founders were inspired by the lush pastures and high-quality milk of the Yorkshire region, which reminded them of the fertile lands they had left behind. With a commitment to excellence and a desire to blend their heritage with local traditions, they established Yorkshire Dama Cheese. From its inception, the company focused on creating cheeses that would reflect the rich flavours and textures of their Mediterranean roots, while also embracing the unique qualities of Yorkshire’s dairy produce.

Yorkshire Dama Cheese quickly gained a reputation for their high standards and dedication to quality. By sourcing the freshest local milk and employing traditional cheese-making methods, they were able to craft exceptional cheeses that stood out in the market. Their range includes a variety of cheeses, each with its distinct character, but it is their Yorkshire 'Squeaky Cheese' that has garnered particular acclaim.

Yorkshire Dama 'Squeaky Cheese' offers a fresh, milky flavour and the signature squeak that cheese curd aficionados love. This product exemplifies the company’s philosophy of combining the best of both worlds: the rich cheese-making heritage of the founders and the superior ingredients available in Yorkshire. This blend of tradition and innovation has allowed Yorkshire Dama Cheese to create a product that is both unique and deeply rooted in the heritage of its founders.

Today, Yorkshire Dama Cheese continues to honour its legacy while pushing the boundaries of artisan cheese-making. With a loyal following and a growing reputation, the company stands as a testament to the founders' journey and their commitment to excellence. Whether you are enjoying their 'Squeaky Cheese' or one of their other fine products, Yorkshire Dama Cheese offers a taste experience that is both rich in history and vibrant with the flavours of Yorkshire and beyond.
