With the delicious milk from our herd of cows who graze the lush pastures of the Cheshire Plains we lovingly make our award winning, traditional Cheshire cheese, whey butter and other products.

A timeless, traditional British Territorial cheese with delicious, grassy, piquant flavours. It has an earthy complexity and a subtleness that lingers.

The characteristic crumble is delicate and dewy. By adding Annatto to the make the Appleby’s Coloured Cheshire has a warm sunrise colour.

Each raw milk clothbound Cheshire takes a day to make and around twelve weeks to mature. The provenance and flora of the natural surroundings give Appleby’s Cheshire a flavour that is totally unique.

Pair with fresh fruit or a crisp sparkling cider.

Made with raw cow’s milk and animal rennet.

Appleby’s Whey Butter is traditionally churned, salted and patted using the ‘scotch hands’ that give the unique lines on the pats.

The flavour is deliciously mellow and very moreish.

Curds are made into the cheese and the whey was traditionally used to make butter, feed the livestock or put back on the land. Appleby’s revived their whey butter after a 30 year interlude and have found it so popular that they wish they could make twice as much.

Spread thick enough to see your bite mark. Suitable for baking.

Made from raw cow’s milk with salt added.
