Gunstone is a unpasteurized, goat’s milk cheese with a natural rind. It’s semi-hard with a golden interior with irregular eyes. The paste is firm and has a buttery texture. The taste is slightly buttery too, and slightly goaty, nutty, and salty, but quite mellow. There is little goat tang. Quite another fine Devon goat’s cheese. I could see this one becoming quite good if allowed to age, probably developing the nuttiness more and maybe some sweetness. Overall, excellent cheese!
