Gubbeen

“Like the Chateaux that produce just one wine from their land, our milk produces Gubbeen cheese” say the Fergusons of their cheese – and who can blame them for sticking to such a successful recipe?

Characteristics: washed rind; semi-soft paste, pliable texture; fresh, milky, buttery with slight smokiness.

Best with: a delicious starter fried in breadcrumbs and served with relishes.
