Maffra Dargo Walnut

red leicester

Maffra Red Leicester

Maffra Red Leicester has a tightly knit texture and buttery, mellow flavour. 

The cheese takes its colour from a natural dye found in the seeds of the South American Annatto plant.

Try serving with celery, fig jam and a dry white.

 

Maffra Dargo Walnut

Made to a traditional Red Leicester recipe and infused with crushed walnuts, Maffra Dargo Walnut has a sweet, nutty flavour with a firm, slightly flaky texture.  The oil from the walnuts gradually permeates the curd resulting in a striking marbled effect. 

This is a wonderful dessert cheese particularly if served with poached pears or preserved figs and a chilled Chenin Blanc.
