About Ingot
Ingot is a soft, smooth textured fresh, lactic goats cheese. The cheese is matured for 3 weeks, this is it what give it the natural wrinkly rind.
Blue /Green spots on Ingot.
Certain times of the year, the Ingot cheese from Holker Farm Dairy, pick up spots of blue / green mould.
This mould is not introduced and is purely environmental.
The blue / green mould does not change the nature of the cheese in any way and is completely harmless. It occurs on many artisan cheeses from time to time, both continental and from the UK. Many people welcome the ‘variation’ in these artisanal, hand-made cheeses.
About Our Supplier
Martin Gott & Nicola Robinson – Holker Farm Dairy, Cumbria:
Martin and Nicola use a non-intensive method of farming: the sheep and goats graze the rich fields of the Holker Estate and are only milked once a day, making for a less-stressed animal and a better-quality milk. The cheese is made naturally using homemade starter cultures, to truly capture their terroir.
