Coolea: Coolea Extra Mature, made in Co Cork. The flavours of Coolea are sweet and lingering. Great quality milk sets the backdrop for subtly variable notes of caramel, butterscotch, bacon, and honey. Smooth and close textured, it is reminiscent of very high-quality Dutch goudas/Boerenkaaszen. 

Killeen: Firm, goat’s milk cheese. The flavour is fresh, clean and milky, with notes of caramel, nuts and a very slight lactic note in the finish.

Durrus: Semi-soft, washed-rind Irish Farmhouse cheese with a delicately pungent flavour. The aroma is one of hay, undergrowth and wet soil, in short it smells of the hillside in Coomkeen. The flavour is long, round and earthy, a flavour which is uniquely and unmistakably Durrus.

Carrig Bru: Light and buttery with hints of cream, earth, and a slight ale finish. Carrig Bru has a semi-firm texture and natural rind developed in Sheridans Cheesemongers maturing room.

Smoked Gubbeen: Waxed rind, smoked raw cow’s milk cheese. Gubbeen has a mild, smoky flavour which can be extremely more-ish

St Killians: This full-fat, mould ripened cheese can be instantly identified by its hexagonal shape. St. Killians has a fresh, grassy aromas with a mild, salty butter flavour and mushroomy rind. The paste can range from semi soft to nearly liquid when fully ripe
