Excalibur English Cheddar Black Wax Cuts

Embodying centuries of English cheesemaking tradition, Excalibur English Cheddar is a testament to the art of aging. Unlike many modern cheddars, this vintage variety is hand-selected and crafted from the milk of grass-fed cows, ensuring a rich, authentic flavor profile. The iconic black wax coating isn't just for looks; it serves a crucial purpose by sealing in moisture and allowing the cheese to mature gracefully, developing a unique creaminess that's beautifully balanced by its sharp, robust character. As you cut into this classic cheddar, you'll discover a firm, dense paste with the satisfying "crystalline crunch" of a well-matured cheese. The flavor is bold and complex, with a powerful sharpness that lingers on the palate, complemented by notes of nuttiness and a clean, buttery finish. Excalibur English Cheddar is incredibly versatile. It's the ideal star for a charcuterie or cheese board, pairs exceptionally well with a traditional brown ale or a full-bodied red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon. For a truly elevated experience, try it melted over a burger, grated into a gourmet mac and cheese, or simply enjoyed on a cracker with a touch of fig jam. A true culinary masterpiece, this is a cheese that lives up to its legendary name.
