Lesher
August 4th, 2009 | by tb |
Lesher is a Cheddar/English-style cheese made by Keswick Creamery in Newberg, PA. Lesher is made from raw, Jersey milk that has been aged in a wax rind. Presumably the cheese is named after the road the farm is located on.
The interior of the cheese is a golden, honey color. It has a firm texture that is crumbly and fractures like shale into bite-size slivers.
Lesher is like a 2+ year old aged Cheddar, in that there are notes of butterscotch, carmel, and hazelnuts. It’s not overly salty and also has a hint of sweetness to balance the tanginess.
