The Worthy Farm Reserve Cheddar is a new offering created in partnership with Wyke Farms that is sure to be recognizable amongst avid fans of the Glastonbury Festival in the UK. The cheese is made with milk sourced from the dairy herd that live on the aforementioned festival site through the rest of the year. The cheese has been reportedly aged under wood for six monies to help it achieve a hint of sweetness with a lasting creamy flavor for consumers to enjoy.
Glastonbury Festival Creator Michael Eavis spoke on the new Worthy Farm Reserve Cheddar saying, "About 100 years ago, my grandfather decided to make the milk at Worthy Farm into Caerphilly cheese. Now, after 50 years of our recent festival history, our farm milk is being made into cheese once again by Wyke Farms and will be sold exclusively at Co-op stores across the UK. We’re thrilled that we can work together as a collective, with Co-op and Wyke Farms, to bring this tasty reserve cheddar to households across the UK."
