Pepperdon

A soft, fresh cheese, Pepperdon is made in South Devon specially for The Cheese Shed. Fresh cheeses like this are made very quickly - ready to eat in about a day - so they're always mild, very soft in texture and have no rind. Pepperdon features crushed black peppercorns and a hint of garlic; the use of Jersey cow's milk makes it particularly creamy. There are also two related cheeses: Parke and Drogo. Each one weighs about 250g.

Unpasteurised, vegetarian.

NB: Pepperdon is a small settlement in the Wray valley just north of Bovey Tracey, where we're based.
