Carrigaline Farmhouse Cheese is a semi-firm cheese with a spongey-texture from the many small holes in it. It has a mellow, almost sweet taste.
It is sold covered in yellow wax; though it's sometimes coated in green wax for export to America.
Carrigaline Farmhouse is made in Carrigaline, County Cork, Ireland by Ann and Pat O'Farrell, 6 miles south of Cork (the city.) They use pasteurized milk from their Freisian cows, and vegetarian rennet. The cheese is best aged at least 3 months.
It is sold in 200 g, 400 g and 1.8 kg wheels, and as slices, in supermarkets in Ireland, and in the UK in grocery stores such as Sainsbury's.
There is a version of flavoured Carrigaline Farmhouse Cheese with herbs and garlic.
