Blackmount is a raw milk ashed lactic goats milk pyramid made with milk from our small herd of dairy goats, it is made with vegetarian rennet and is yeast ripened so it softens from the outside in if left to mature long enough. Blackmount is the hill behind our farm which forms the start of the Pentland Hills which go right up to Edinburgh.


It develops citrus and fresh flavours from the middle and the rind becomes slightly spicy as it ripens.
