Five Shires is a distinctive English blended cheese made by combining five classic varieties: Cheddar, Cheshire, Derby, Double Gloucester and Red Leicester. Made from pasteurised cow’s milk, this cheese brings together the best qualities of these traditional favourites to create a smooth, balanced and full-flavoured cheese with broad appeal.
The combination gives Five Shires a rich, creamy character with a mellow savoury depth, making it an excellent choice for everyday enjoyment as well as cheeseboards and sharing platters. Its approachable flavour and smooth texture make it a great option for customers looking for a classic British cheese with something a little different.
At Riddle & Rind, each portion is cut fresh to order to preserve quality, flavour and freshness, whether you are building a cheeseboard or choosing a versatile cheese for home enjoyment.
