Extra Sharp Cheddar is a bold and flavorful cheese, crafted from rich, pasteurized cow's milk. Originating from England, it undergoes a unique aging process, typically maturing for over a year, which intensifies its sharp, tangy taste and crumbly texture. Packed with protein and calcium, it supports strong bones and muscles, while its higher fat content means it's best enjoyed in moderation. Perfect for gourmet grilled cheese, savory cheeseboards, or as a delightful topping on baked dishes, Extra Sharp Cheddar elevates any meal with its intense flavor. Savor its complexity and let your taste buds be amazed!
