Teviotdale cheese
Teviotdale is a full fat hard cheese produced in the area of Teviotdale on the border lands between Scotland and England, within a radius of 90 km from the summit of Peel Fell in the Cheviot Hills. The cheese is produced from the milk of the Jersey cattle. There are no known current producers of this cheese. Description

An hour later, the curds are cut and settle for 20 minutes before being moulded and mechanically pressed. The cheeses are left in brine at 13 °C for 9 hours after which they are removed to mature. They are dried for 4 days and left to mature for 15 days, whilst being turned daily. Awards
