Kirkham's Lancashire is back!

We are delighted to be able to tell you that Kirkham's Lancashire will be back on sale from next Wednesday. Graham will personally select some cheeses for us on Monday and they will be winging their way to us immediately. 

You may have heard that Kirkham's cheeses were subject to a precautionary recall at Christmas, but we are so happy to report that absolutely nothing untoward has been found either in their milk or in their cheese. They have worked constructively and tirelessly with all the relevant authorities. They take their responsibility to provide safe food deeply seriously and have been able to demonstrate that their farming and cheesemaking practices are robust and hygienic.  

We believe that Mrs Kirkham’s Lancashire is a special cheese indeed. Not only because it is delicious, but also because of its place in the history of cheesemaking in this country. It is the very last, raw milk, farmhouse Lancashire cheese made to the traditional two-day curd method.  It is a recipe which has been handed down through the Kirkham family and it is Graham’s great wish to be able to pass it on to the next generation.  

We hope you will join us in saving this great cheese for future generations to enjoy.
