Cornish Yarg

£22.00

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.

Please allow for 10% variants on the weight as all of our cheeses are hand made and cut.

Storage & Serving

Keep well wrapped in the fridge but we do recommend removing cheese from the fridge and any wrapping to allow the cheese the ‘breath’ for an hour or two before serving which will allow the full flavour and character of the cheese to come through!

    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.

    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.
