Double Gloucester Cheese produced by Dewlay Cheesemakers Ltd is a traditional English cheese that has a firm yet creamy texture. It is typically made from full-fat cow's milk and has a rich, buttery flavor with a hint of nuttiness. The cheese has a distinct orange color, which is derived from the addition of annatto, a natural coloring agent.


Historically, this cheese has been associated with Gloucestershire, England, and is known for its ability to age well, developing a more intense flavor over time.
