Norfolk White Lady is a soft, bloomy-rind cheese made using ewe’s milk by Becky Enefer at Wilton Farm in Hockwold, Norfolk. Crafted with care on the farm using milk from her own flock, this cheese reflects both the richness of ewe’s milk and the precision of true farmhouse cheesemaking.
Beneath its delicate white bloomy rind lies a smooth, pale interior that softens beautifully as it matures. When young, the texture is fresh and lightly firm with a clean, creamy character. As it develops, the paste becomes softer and more yielding, eventually reaching a luxuriously creamy consistency beneath the rind.
Ewe’s milk brings a distinctive depth and richness, creating a fuller, more rounded flavour than cow’s milk Brie-style cheeses. Notes of sweet cream and butter lead, followed by gentle earthy mushroom tones from the rind and a subtle nutty complexity that lingers on the finish. The result is a cheese that feels indulgent yet balanced, offering both refinement and comfort.
Handcrafted on Wilton Farm using milk from Becky Enefer’s own flock and matured with care, Norfolk White Lady stands as a true expression of Norfolk’s growing reputation for exceptional artisan cheeses.
