Ardrahan
Ardrahan

Using the milk from their own herd of Friesian cows which graze in the fields at Ardrahan House in Kanturk, County Cork, the Burns have created this distinctive and characterful washed-rind cheese. Ardrahan possesses a pungent and lingering farmyard flavour which marries a creamy centre with a moist, slightly granular rind. A wonderfully successful combination of unusual tastes and textures, Ardrahan is a must-try for any lover of strong chesses.

Mary Burns
Ardrahan Cheese was first produced in 1983 by Mary Burns, and her late husband Eugine, at their family farm in the lush countryside of Duhallow in north west county Cork. However the foundations for the cheese's success were laid much earlier by Eugene’s father who in 1925 established the Ardrahan herd of pedigree Friesians imported from the United Kingdom. Since then, all the replacement heifers have been born and bred in Ardrahan from the best pedigree sires, and it is the milk from this herd the milk that is used to make Ardrahan.
