Knockanore
The Lonergan Family have been making award-winning cheese on the family farm in Knockanore since 1987 using raw unpasteurised milk from our pedigree herd of cows. The land, coupled with the quality of herd, helps Knockanore to produce the best milk. The cheese is handmade using traditional techniques. The raw milk adopts the flavours of the local pasture on which the cows graze producing a cheddar cheese that is rich in omega 3 and antioxidants with a complex, creamy flavour, earthy tones and a nutty aroma.
Knockanore Farmhouse Cheese is an award-winning, quality Irish cheese. Their smoked cheese is smoked with locally sourced oak wood in their own smokehouse, and all flavours and colours are natural. Their milking parlour and cheese making facility are equipped with the latest technology to ensure first-class standards from start to finish.
