About Longhorn cheddar cheese

Longhorn cheddar is a cheddar-style cheese associated with a distinctive cylindrical form, commonly cut into half-moon shapes for sale. It is made from cow’s milk and has the familiar firm, sliceable texture and savoury, tangy flavour of cheddar, with strength varying according to age and producer.

It may be sold as a whole or cut wheel, in wedges, or sliced and shredded. Ageing, moisture, and any differences in production affect firmness and flavour, so the name alone does not establish a precise strength or composition. It is used in the same general ways as other cheddar cheeses.
