Ragstone
February 26th, 2010 | by tb |
Ragstone is a goat’s milk cheese (unpasteurized) made by Neal’s Yard Creamery, near Dorstone in Herefordshire. It comes in the form of a log, about 15cm in length. The exterior has a wonderful craggly, bloomy rind that is marbled in pale gold. The interior is the usual goat’s milk bright white, with some ripeness near the edge. The paste is quite firm for an aged goat cheese. It is slightly crumbly, but manages to hold itself together. The taste is fantastic! It is well balanced between goat tang and a very lemony aftertaste, that lingers for quite a long time. Between the wife and I, this cheese was gone in minutes. Just a wonderfully perfect cheese.
