Cheshire - Whole Wheel (9 pound)
This dense, crumbly cheese derives its mild saltiness from the pastures of the Cheshire plain. England's oldest-known cheese, it is reddish-orange in color and has a slightly tangy flavor. Cheshire is ripened for two to three months, more aged than a typical Double Gloucester but less than most cheddars. Immensely popular and widely copied, a true cheese lover should be quite familiar with this longtime classic.
