Knockanore Cheese is handmade on the Lonergan family farm in County Waterford, Ireland, using raw milk from their pedigree herd of Friesian cows. The Lonergan family have been farming in the lush rolling countryside of Knockanore for over 60 years. The cheese is a hard-pressed, mature farmhouse cheese made in the cheddar style. The raw milk adopts the flavours of the local pasture on which the cows graze producing a cheddar cheese with a complex creamy flavour, earthy tones and a nutty aroma. Knockanore Cheese is free from artificial flavouring & preservatives. Every drop of milk used comes from the Lonergan Pedigree herd of Friesian cows. We also produce a range of flavoured pasteurised cheddars under a separate brand, Bride Valley. Bride Valley Irish Pasteurised Cheddar is matured and carefully blended by the team here at Knockanore. It is available in the following flavours: Naturally smoked using oak chips, black pepper and chives, garlic and herb, sundried tomato, black pepper and rosemary, roasted onion and caraway seed.
