Smart's Double Gloucester is produced by the Smart family of Churcham in Gloucestershire using unpasteurised [[cows' milk]] and vegetarian [[rennet]]. This is made from full cream [[milk]] from both the morning and evening milkings, with [[annatto]] (traditional dye). With a natural rind, it is aged for a minimum of 6 months and has been described by The Real Cheese Companion as:
"Rich, mellow, powerful, earthy, almost smoky", "the texture is slightly crumblier than Cheddar". Whole [[cheeses]] are produced weighing 3.4kg, 1.5kg and .34kg.

Double Gloucester is a traditional, hard [[cheese]] which has been made in Gloucestershire since the 16th century. At one time the [[cheeses]] were made only with the milk from Gloucester cows, which became almost extinct, although there has been a revival.

Smart's Double Gloucester can be consumed as part of a cheeseboard, with [[pickles]] or used in cooking.
