Combining a Vintage Cheddar with an award-winning Irish Whiskey enhances the texture, making it creamy yet crumbly. With time, flavors meld together, allowing the distinct notes of whiskey to fully develop. The initial taste leans toward the classic sharpness of cheddar. However, a warm whiskey note dances alongside it, bringing depth and complexity. Hints of caramel, vanilla, and sometimes even a bit of spice can surprise your palate.

Since the Dairygold Co-operative Society came into existence in 1919, the cheddar cheeses of Mitchelstown (Baile Mhistéala in Irish) in County Tipperary, have been the most popular choice in Irish homes. As the trusted market leader of Irish cheese, success of making full-flavored cheeses is, of course, having a regular supply of its most important raw material: the finest Irish milk. The land of Tipperary is renowned for its dairy produce due to the many green pastures, clear waters, and the mild climate it enjoys.
