Hailing from Somerset's dairying heartland, this cheese is a homage to the richness of sheep's milk, championing a unique balance of flavours that set it apart.

A single glance at Sheep Rustler reveals a cheese that's rich and inviting. The golden, slightly undulating rind houses an ivory-hued interior peppered with the occasional small eye, hinting at a matured wisdom.

Upon the first taste, you encounter a texture that is firm yet yielding, whispering tales of careful ageing. This cheese doesn't merely sit on the tongue - it dances, revealing layers of delicate sweetness underpinned by nutty tones and a mild, fruity tang. The flavour deepens as it lingers, unfolding into a finish that's subtly earthy, reflecting the lush pastures from which it hails.

The journey that Sheep Rustler offers is one of complexity and harmony, a symphony of tastes that never overwhelm but gently coax the palate to explore further. This cheese is more than a dish, it's a narrative, telling a story of tradition, expertise, and the singular beauty of sheep's milk transformed into culinary gold.

A Word on Rennet & Rind Maturing


"An occasional wash of the cheese to promote good rind health and ensuring the cheese doesn't dry out, which may lead to cracking. Monthly Turning, moisture content dependent"

Whitelake Cheeses

"White Lake’s home is set at Bagborough Farm – just off the Glastonbury festival site, in Pylle Somerset. The milk we use to create our wonderful goat cheeses is provided by Roger’s own beloved herd – a mix of Toggenburg, British Alpine and Saanen goats. Roger and the team take great care to ensure our four-legged suppliers are as happy as can be – they are fed a specially adapted diet ideal for cheesemaking. A local Guernsey herd provide our cows’ milk and our sheeps’ milk comes from a flock also located just down the road. The result is minimal food miles, support for our Somerset neighbours, and truly exceptional cheese!"
