Milleens Cheese Wheel 1x1.1-1.8 KG

The cheese varies in age between 4-12 weeks and is made using animal rennet. It is a flat, round cheese which varies in diameter between 7-23cm and thickness between 5-8cm often slightly bulging at the middle. The cheese comes in weights from 100g to 1.2kg and there are also smoked options. There are two presentations of the cheese available; the solid ‘Dotes’ and the ‘O’ similar to the Dote but without the centre. The ‘O’ and ‘Dotes’ are different in both flavour and texture. The ‘O’ is more evocative of the original Milleens, with slight chalkiness at the centre of the pate and a particularly earthy aroma emitting from its pungent, pink orangey rind. In contrast, the ‘Dotes’ are softer and more fragrant with an active orange rind. Both present a firm, creamy texture and herbal, mushroomy and floral taste intensified by the farmyard aromas.
