For the last 30 years, Curworthy Cheese has been made at Stockbeare Farm situated in the mid-Devon countryside under the shadow of Dartmoor. A perfect area for grass growing with its unique climate of rain and humidity. The milk is sourced from Dunstaple Farm Holsworthy - a single herd grazed outside in the fields during the summer months. It is delivered early in the morning after milking has finished pasteurised to make this award-winning cheese. Curworthy is a full-fat hard cheese with a creamy light buttery taste when young and developing into a full-flavoured mellowness when aged. The curd after pressing overnight in traditional presses is then matured in special temperature-controlled ripening rooms. No colouring or preservatives whatsoever are added - except salt which enhances the flavour and lengthens the cheese's life. |
Please note all cheeses are hand-cut, therefore the weights listed are approximate. We work very hard to cut them as accurately as we can.
