Borough Market Cheddar ReviewSubmitted by Jon on Thu, 07/02/2009 - 21:49 |
We were doing some ide by side comparisons of fine cheddar nd I just happen to pick this one up as well. But frankly I haven't been able to learn much about "Borough Market" Cheddar. Supposedly a line of cheese from Neal’s Yard Dairy, but who knows what that means.
All I know is that it was some of the best cheddar I've ever tried. It easily stood up to the Keen's and Montgomery we tried next to it. Just the right sharpness with a wonderful, almost aromatic, finish, and a very nice firm yet silky texture. Perhaps a bit stronger and complex than the Montgomery and with a slightly different sharpness than the Keen's.
But certainly really good cheddar.
One thing about the cheese was that the wrapping was extremely tough. It looked like a regular cloth covering, but when trying to cut through it it was more like some sort of hard laminate. I'd advice peeling it off rather than dulling your knife by hacking through it.
