Coombe Castle International, a U.K.-based, family-owned specialist producer and exporter of high-quality British and Irish dairy brands, is licensed for Guinness cheddar, the world’s only official Guinness cheese. The company has joined forces with MCT Dairies in the U.S. to deliver this great British cheese to customers and consumers nationwide.
“We’re delighted to be partnering with MCT Dairies and excited to reignite the presence of Guinness cheddar in the U.S. market, both on retailer shelves and in the foodservice industry,” said Ben Hutchins, sales and marketing director at Coombe Castle.
Handcrafted with the finest quality ingredients, made with care and matured specifically to suit the intricate flavor combinations required to produce this bold, delicious and malty cheese, the cheddar curds are blended with Guinness stout to absorb the complex flavor notes and give the cheese its unique flavor profile. The dark stout contrasts with the pale, straw-color cheddar, providing its signature marbled appearance.
Cheddar cheese infused with the distinctive flavor of Guinness gives a perfectly balanced, slightly sweet and malty flavor with a smooth, creamy texture.
