Irish cheddar with Guiness stout
The history of Guinness is truly a tale to behold. Beginning with the birth of Arthur Guinness in 1725, who at the young age of 27, took a £100 inheritance and set up his first brewery in Leixlip, County Kildare. A few short years later, at age 34, Arthur decided to try his hand at brewing in Dublin. Even in the midst of the floundering industry, he signed a 9000-year lease on a small, disused, and ill-equipped property at St. James’s Gate. From there, the legacy of Guinness was born.
Described as bold, complex, and magnificently malty, Guinness Cheddar is a unique expression of their heritage. Hand crafted in Somerset, using locally sourced milk, it’s carefully prepared by their expert cheesemakers. It’s then matured specifically to suit the intricate flavour combinations required to produce the bold, delicious, and malty cheese.
Guinness Cheddar is made in select batches. Where every truckle is lovingly laboured over by hand with their master cheesemaker; who oversees the expert process from beginning to end. From the very first batch, to the pouring on of the distinctive black wax coating, every effort is made to ensure the final product is crafted to perfection.
This Cheddar Cheese with Guinness is visually stunning. The gorgeous marbling of cheddar and Guinness throughout the cheese will definitely make it stand out on your cheese platter. The distinctively flavoured cheddar can be enjoyed on its own, with a pint and some crackers, or incorporated into your favourite recipes. The options are as endless as your imagination
