About West Country farmhouse Cheddar cheese

West Country farmhouse Cheddar is a named regional style of Cheddar made on farms in southwest England. It is a firm, typically pale-to-golden cheese with a savoury, tangy flavour; texture and sharpness develop with maturation.

It is eaten as a table cheese and used in cooking, and is sold at different ages. The term describes a regional farmhouse product rather than one fixed recipe, so milk treatment, maturation and any added colouring can vary among makers.
