Jonathan Crump's Double Gloucester cheese

Jonathan Crump's Double Gloucester is made from the milk pure Gloucester breed cows' at Standish Park farm in Oxlynch near Stonehouse in Gloucestershire. Double Gloucester is a traditional, whole milk, hard cheese which has been made in Gloucestershire since the 16th century although production in the county had died out by 1950. At one time the cheeses were made only with the milk from Gloucester cows, which became almost extinct, although Jonathan Crump uses the milk of his own herd of Gloucesters to make this cheese which was revived on Charles Martell's farm in Dymock in 1973. Many farmhouses can still be seen to-day with their louvered tallets, which is where the cheese was stored before being sold to the cheese merchants. These merchants would walk on the cheese to check that they weren’t ‘hoven’ or too soft.

The milk in Double Gloucester is taken from both morning and evening milkings giving it a rich, buttery taste and flaky texture. It is firm and bitable, buy not as firm as Cheddar and the cheese has a fudge-like texture and a sweet, nutty flavour. The colour is bright orange, due to the addition of annatto. It has a natural, slightly mouldy rind and matures for about 3 months.

Jonathan Crump's Double Gloucester is delicious with bread and pickles. It is available at Stroud Farmer's Market on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month and some local branches of Warner's Budgens.
