Cashel Farmhouse Cheesemakers
Cashel Farmhouse Cheesemakers is a 100% family owned business. We are farmers and farmhouse cheesemakers, and since 1984 we have been making cheese on Beechmount Farm, in the heart of rural Tipperary. Cashel Blue is an original recipe, uniquely made and matured by our family, using traditional cheesemaking methods. All our milk comes from grass-fed cows who graze local fields. The quality of local Tipperary milk combined with careful maturation, gives our cheeses their rich creaminess and subtle flavour. Cashel Blue Organic is made to the same recipe as our flagship Cashel Blue, except for it is only made seasonally and aged for longer, the milk for Cashel Blue organic comes from a single herd of mixed race cows, including Montbeliard and Norwegian Red breeds, the cows are only milked once daily. This results in a rich and complex cheese. Our Crozier Blue is made from 100% local sheep's milk, a creamy delicate cheese , it undergoes a long maturation period of up to 8 months. which imparts a unique depth of flavour and a gentle spicy note. Shepherd's Store is a European style, semi-hard sheep's milk cheese, aged for a minimum of 8 months and up to 18 months, it has a firm yet delicately creamy texture a distinctly Irish Farmhouse Cheese. Our own cows milk is also used to produce our delicious , creamy cow's milk yogurt (with no added milk powder), and our sheep's yogurt is made from local sheep's milk, both made here at the farm, and which we have recently begun to produce again after a break of 17 years!
