Brightwell Ash Goat's Cheese
Ripened Goat’s Cheese
Producer: Norton & Yarrow Cheese
Region: Oxfordshire
A distinctive cheese with a beautifully thin ash dusted rind, leading into a pure white delicate creamy interior. This cheese melts in your mouth and is nutty and complex.
Made by Fraser Norton and Rachel Yarrow near Henley-on-Thames, they combine traditional French methods with their own distinct Oxfordshire flavour. The pair started their cheese-making journey five years ago with the help of an initiative called Farm Step, run by environmental charity Earth Trust, who offer tenancies on land and barn space to agricultural start-ups.
Brightwell has already made a mark on the artisan cheese world, winning several awards, and we can’t wait to see what Norton & Yarrow develop next.
Tŷ Caws recommends: serve with Peter’s Yard Charcoal crackers and a dry white wine, such as Sancerre. Or if you prefer something fizzy, then Cremant de Loire perfectly compliments the creaminess of this cheese.
