Golden Cross

Golden Cross is an English cheese produced by Kevin and Alison Blunt in East Sussex. The cheese is made from raw goat's milk and it's shaped into a log. It has a bloomy rind that hides a creamy, firm, and dense texture. The aromas are fresh, grassy, and floral, while the flavors are sweet and rich.

When young, Golden Cross is rolled in ash (lightly charcoaled), then matured for a few weeks in order to allow the development of natural rind. At peak ripeness, the flavors become very nutty, reaching notes that are almost reminiscent of peanut butter.

The cheese was named after a cross on the roof of a local pub. It's recommended to pair it with sparkling wines.
