Story

Cavanbert is made by hand every Monday from raw cows milk from the Corleggy farm herd. It is aged for 2 weeks to develop its white rind mould and continues to develop its flavour for 6 to 8 weeks thereafter. Cavanbert makes a great cheeseboard cheese or for baked cheese en croute.

Producer

Silke Croppe has been producing cheese in Cavan for over 20 years. She is a true artisan producer who has never let the difficulties involved in small-scale farming and cheesemaking stand in the way of retaining a real authenticity. she also produces various other wonderful cheeses from raw goats’, sheep’s and cows’ milk. As well as selling to independent retailers and restaurants, she runs the most wonderful cheese stalls that are packed with all shapes, sizes and flavours of cheeses, all from her own production. Silke also runs a small school where visitors can learn the many arts and crafts of cheesemaking. Her son, Tom, is now fully involved and the second generation of Corleggy looks to be in safe hands.
