Wensleydale is the perfect cheese to eat with fruit. Creamy with an open texture, Wensleydale is one of the oldest cheese varieties in England as monks were first known to be making Wensleydale in the 11th century. Wensleydale has a natural sweet acidity that complements fruit, best of all cranberries. We take plump cranberries and add them to the cheese creating a great, sweet and juicy cheese. We then lock in this flavour using a distinct burgundy wax. Somerdale Wensleydale & Cranberries makes for a wonderful dessert cheese when served on sweetened or ginger crackers and is also great crumbled over a salad.
