The Menu: Celebrating the best of Ireland's raw-milk cheese

Plus: The Menu has, of late, been enjoying Ballyfin Farm Free Range Eggs.

"There are now only nine Irish raw milk cheesemakers remaining after many of the original practitioners were forced into using pasteurised milk by over-zealous and under-informed health and agriculture policies."

Raw Milk Cheese Week

The Menu is readying his cheeseboard for Irish Raw Milk Cheese Week (June 23-29), seven days dedicated to celebrating some of the very finest of all Irish farmhouse cheeses, those made from Irish raw milk which lends itself quite magnificently to the cheesemaking process.
