Story
Mount Leinster is made with summer milk from Tom’s herd and bound in a traditional cloth and lard rind. This clothbound method allows a vibrant growth of microbes on the surface which helps develop the flavour of the cheese. Mount leinster is aged for around 12 months allowing the flavour to develop slowly.
