Truckles make the perfect gift or a show-stopping addition to a splendid feast.
Due to the smaller more compact nature of our 1.8kg truckles, they take on their own glorious flavour, that differs in flavour from wedges cut from our 27kg cheeses.

HOW TO STORE – WHOLE You can store your whole sealed clothbound truckle in a damp, cool environment like a cellar or fridge. We would not recommend exceeding one month’s additional ageing from purchase as we cannot vouch for the conditions being correctly maintained outside of our storeroom at Home Farm. We keep our cheese on wooden shelves to avoid contact with anything which might draw moisture from the cheese or taint it in some way. HOW TO STORE – CUT Once the muslin cloth is off it is best to wrap the cheese and keep it in a cool larder or fridge (8-15ºC). Waxed paper is perfect; clingfilm will do. If using cling film, only cover the cheese’s cut side and use a new piece each time you open it. If it is too dry your cheese may crack; too wet and it’ll become thick with mould. Although this mould is natural and can enhance the flavour of the cheese, we suggest you scrape off the excess before consuming it. CUTTING TIPS- Please see this link on how best to cut the truckle

Very tasty cheddar with a delicious rind that is my favourite part. Superb with slices of onion and a glass of proper cider.

For my taste could do with a bit more aging to give a more crumbly texture and tad more punch for your bucks.
