Here it is, the world’s best cheddar as voted for at the World Cheese Awards in 2021.
Named after the pitchforks used to mix salt into the curds, this delicately made Somerset cheese has been a critical darling for years and continues to be a regular winner at the World Cheese Awards, even nabbing the Super Gold award, its highest honour, in 2022.
One taste of Pitchfork Cheddar will let you know the reason for its acclaim. Full-bodied and dense with a masterful creamy texture, this hard cheese has a remarkable ability to ramp up with each succulent bite, building an unbelievable amount of complexity, power, and longevity. Cheddars are often seen as a mild variety that escapes the cheeseboard, but Pitchfork Cheddar corrects the record.
