| Murray's Irish Cheddar, produced by Wexford Creamery in County Wexford, Ireland, is a pasteurized, vegetarian-friendly, semi-hard cheddar aged at least 12 months. Made from milk of grass-fed Friesian cows, its natural sunny yellow color derives from beta-carotene. The cheese features a firm yet creamy texture, with a balanced flavor of grassy, buttery, and fruity sweetness, plus a sharp bite. Encased in green wax, it retains moisture and reflects its Irish heritage. The cooperative creamery uses traditional cheddaring, ensuring quality and consistent production. It pairs well with various wines, beers, and foods to complement its rich profile. | |
