Description

The leaves, which attract naturally occurring moulds, are brushed onto the cheese in concentric circles. As the cheese matures, the edible wrap imparts a delicate, mushroomy taste and develops its unique bloomy white appearance.

Once matured, nettled Yarg is fresh, lemony and creamy under its beautiful rind, with an irresistible crumble in the core.

Cornish Yarg made by Lynher Dairies is a nettle wrapped semi hard cheese made from grass rich Cornish milk. Tangy under its natural rind and slightly crumbly in the core, it consistently wins top international awards.

Cornish Yarg

Award-Winning

The Cornish Yarg is turned by hand every other day and takes six weeks from field to being sold. It's described as having a fresh mushroomy taste with an irresistible crumble in the core.

"Made by hand, wrapped by nature. Delicate and complex, Cornish Yarg is a Caerphilly style, semi-hard cheese, encased in stinging nettles." - Lynher Dairies

Delicious cheese

Cornish yarg

It was perfect

A winner

As the dscription says this is a semi hard cheese which I found had a light flavour and paired perfectly with Elderflower Press with a slice of Lemon. Perfect for our family cheese night and indeed a winner.

Mild & creamy

Milder than I expected, a very satisfying mild and creamy flavour.
Other cheeses delicious and well presented. Will definitely order again next year .

Cornish Yarg

My husband was delighted with the Cornish Yarg I bought him recently. It arrived well packaged and at the time given. Together with the Dozmary it was a beautiful gift for him, one I shall be repeating in February, as he really deserves it. Thank you everyone at the Cornish Cheese Company, I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas.

Ben was so helpful and went above and beyond in ensuring that I got three Yarg cheeses in time for a party. The cheese was absolutely delicious and was much enjoyed by everyone. I thoroughly recommend the Cornish Cheese co.

Fantastic present!

I sent three different Cornish cheeses for my son's 30th weekend in Cornwall. They all loved the cheese, especially the Yarg wrapped in nettles.

Beautiful cheese.

Shame about delivery company. Say they are coming one day. Then saying delayed and don't come till next day.

Lovely creamy and rich flavour. Excellent value. Easy order and delivery.

The best cheese!

Yarg is the best cheese! It's mild flavour and smooth texture makes it a great pairing with a variety of of other foods but it is truly delicious on its own. Pop it on a cheese board with Cornish Blue and a bottle of wine and you have all you need for a great night in!

Great cheese!

Our second order, delicious cheese along with the Brie and blue cheese.

Cheesy Smiles all round!

I have purchased from the Cornish Cheese company in the past and have never been disappointed. This year I was having a larger family gathering on Christmas evening and decided to do a cheese 'grazing' platter so ordered a little more Yarg than usual (thankfully) by also getting the Large Cornish Cheeseboard which included Cornish Cheddar, Brie, Gouda , Blue.

Every bit was devoured and so moorish that everyone returned for more until it was finished. So many compliments about how tasty and 'different' the selection was.

It was all delivered on time in great packaging. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

Lovely cheese

Great cheese!
Mind you I am biased as I used to make this back in the 1990s at Upton Cross

Never fails to delight

Yarg is my favourite British cheese and I wouldn’t contemplate ordering it from any other company. These guys pack their products with care and there’s never a long wait.

As Expected.

Excellent service, delivery on time and well packaged. Cheese was appreciated by the family.

The cheese arrived right on time and you can choose your date of delivery. The Cornish Yarg is a wonderful cheese and I've brought it 3 years in a row and it is so popular that this year I got 2.
