Cashel Blue is one of Ireland's most coveted cheeses. Its origins are traced back to the beginning of the 19th century however the recipe for the cheese you will enjoy this evening was initially crafted in the mid 1980's by Jane & Louis Grubb of Tipperary - the founders of the Irish Association of Artisan Cheesemakers. \nTheir farm which has grown over the years operates in a very environmentally conscious manor in which 20% of the land is dedicated to maintaining biodiversity. \nPairing the Cashel Blue with flavours such as honey, walnut and rocket really compliment its established rich, full and round flavour.
