Description
Gubbeen is one of Ireland’s most celebrated washed rind farmhouse cheeses, handcrafted at Gubbeen Farm near Schull in County Cork using milk from the family’s own herd. Carefully selected by Sheridans Cheesemongers, this artisan cheese reflects the unique Atlantic climate of southwest Ireland and the traditions of small-scale farmhouse cheesemaking.
Each 1.5kg wheel is matured for 6–10 weeks in high-humidity conditions, allowing its natural washed rind to develop. The result is a silky, open-textured paste with aromas of hay, woodland and damp earth, complemented by a rich, rounded flavour that balances buttery sweetness with gentle savoury complexity.
Gubbeen is highly regarded by cheesemongers and chefs for its versatility and distinctive character. It is ideal for premium cheese counters, gourmet delicatessens, luxury hotels, restaurants and fine dining establishments seeking authentic artisan European cheeses with a compelling provenance story.
Subtle and complex washed-rind cheese from South West Ireland. Open silky paste with aromas of hay, undergrowth and wet soil; long, round and earthy flavour. Aged 6–10 weeks.
