Avonlea Clothbound Cheddar's recipe comes from the Orkney Islands, north of mainland Scotland and is hand made in the style of the great traditional English cheddars.
The milk of Holstein cows from the small local farms in the rolling hills of Price Edward Island, is gently heated, but not pasteurized to allow beneficial microbes to thrive and give depth of character and flavour. The salt air and iron-rich soil of Prince Edward Island combine to add flavour and quality to this cheddar.
