Kylemore Farmhouse Cheese is a unique, premium Irish farmhouse cheese produced directed on our farm in Co. Galway. Our unique award-winning cheese is inspired by the Swiss Alps. The cheeses are handmade on the foothills of Slieve Aughty Mountains, Co. Galway. They are producing their highest quality raw material – natural milk from our grass-fed Pedigree Dairy herd of cows for over 60 years.
It is fully traceable and sustainable from farm to fork, Bord Bia – Origin Green approved. They are proud to be producing a product that has a low carbon footprint. Cheese is only produced in the months of April to October and is matured for a minimum of 5 months, this natural washed rind cheese, has a creamy, nutty buttery flavour.
Theresa Roche, the producer of Kylemore Farmhouse Cheese believes that the future of farming is ‘farm diversification’ adding value to their raw materials or having an alternative enterprise on farms. She is passionate about empowering women in agriculture and creating jobs in rural Ireland to enhance health and well-being in our communities. They also offer educational farm and cheese tours and a traditional afternoon tea in our farmhouse.
