About Irish cheese

Irish cheese showcases the rich dairy heritage of Ireland, celebrated for its lush pastures and quality milk. Crafted from cow’s, sheep’s, or goat’s milk, these cheeses range from smooth and creamy to sharp and nutty, offering a versatile flavor palette for culinary use. Famous varieties include the soft and buttery Cashel Blue and the mature, tangy Dubliner. Irish cheese is a source of protein and calcium, supporting muscle and bone health, along with essential vitamins like B12. However, it’s often high in saturated fats and sodium, so moderation is key for a balanced diet. Perfect in traditional Irish dishes or as part of a cheese board, Irish cheese delivers a taste of its artisan roots while providing nutritional benefits if enjoyed mindfully.
