Rachel

£12.19£48.75

Rachel is a wonderfully modern, British, washed-rind goats’ milk cheese, made in Somerset by Whitelake. A pilant texture with an astonishing mouthfeel, chewy bite, but high moisture content allowing a mineral flavour to develop with a mellifluous nutty sweetness.

Gold medal winner at the British Cheese Awards in 2015.

Description

HERD

Toggenburg, British Alpine and Saanen goats

Roger’s own beloved herd – a mix of Toggenburg, British Alpine and Saanen goats. Roger and the team take great care to ensure our four-legged suppliers are as happy as can be – they are fed a specially adapted diet ideal for cheesemaking

MILK

Unpasteurised (Themised)

Raw milk or unpasteurised milk is milk that has not been pasteurised, a process of heating liquid foods to kill pathogens for safe consumption and extending the shelf life.

RENNET

Suitable for vegetarians

Vegetarian rennets are either vegetable-based (made from plants such as figs, nettles and thistles), microbial (produced using moulds and fungi sources) or made using genetically modified rennet.

PYLLE, SOMERSET, BRITISH ISLES

Pylle is a village and civil parish 4 miles south west of Shepton Mallet, and 7 miles from Wells, in the Mendip district of Somerset, England. It has a population of 160. The parish includes the hamlet of Street on the Fosse. The village is very close to the site of the Glastonbury Festiva

Whitelake Cheeses

“White Lake’s home is set at Bagborough Farm – just off the Glastonbury festival site, in Pylle Somerset. The milk we use to create our wonderful goat cheeses is provided by Roger’s own beloved herd – a mix of Toggenburg, British Alpine and Saanen goats. Roger and the team take great care to ensure our four-legged suppliers are as happy as can be – they are fed a specially adapted diet ideal for cheesemaking. A local Guernsey herd provide our cows’ milk and our sheeps’ milk comes from a flock also located just down the road. The result is minimal food miles, support for our Somerset neighbours, and truly exceptional cheese!”
