Avonlea Clothbound Cheddar is a distinct, handcrafted cheese produced by Cows Creamery, which is based on Prince Edward Island in Canada. This award-winning cheese is inspired by the traditional methods of British cheese-making, specifically the cheddar cheeses of Somerset, England.
It is made using milk from local Holstein cows and is aged for at least 14 months to develop its unique flavor and texture. The aging process involves wrapping the cheese in cloth, helping to control moisture loss and mold growth which imparts a robust, earthy profile to the cheese.
