Story
Bride Valley Irish Pasteurised Cheddar is matured and carefully blended by Eamonn and his team at Knockanore. Knockanore Cheese is made on the farm in the tiny townland of Ballyneety in the ancient and historic parish of Knockanore, County Waterford. The Irish name ‘Cnoc an Oir’, literally translates as ‘the hill of gold’. It is on these golden and lush rolling hills that Eamonn and Patricia Lonergan and their family keep a herd of 180 pedigree Friesian cows, and every drop of milk that goes into Knockanore Cheese is from these cows.
Producer
The family work hard to produce the very best quality milk and then transform it into cheese. They have a huge sense of pride when they see how much their customers enjoy eating Knockanore Cheese. There’s a lot that goes into making a top quality cheese and it starts with the land and the animals. Eamonn spends a lot of time managing and improving the farm and has through careful selection and breeding established a dairying herd that is second to none. A deep understanding and connection to the environment is inbuilt in Eamonn and he does his utmost to maintain his land and his animals with respect.
