About Tasmanian Heritage Club Cheddar Rich & Bitey Cheese 140g
This aged Tasmanian cheddar opens with a sharp, pungent aroma of crystallised protein and toasted hay, hinting at its bold character. On the palate, it delivers a rich, full-bodied bite of tangy lactic acid, caramelised butter, and earthy umami depth, with the clean Tasmanian milk lending a distinctive alpine freshness. The finish is long and satisfying, with a pleasantly sharp, savoury warmth that lingers.
