"The Craic" Extra Mature Irish Cheddar is very salty. But delicious. It has a rich aged flavour without being overly sharp. But now I'm wondering if I've been eating so much sharper, stronger, older cheese that my palate has readjusted and like a junkie I need a bigger and bigger hit to get the same high or in this case the same pointy "stab your tongue" tanginess from my cheese. I'm not sure but the Craic is a delicious cheese that was lovely in a simple salad I made for dinner the other night and will possibly be part of the breakfast sandwiches I'll be making tomorrow morning with some fancy applewood smoked bacon.
Highly Recommended.

Speaking as someone who eats everything from budget nothing to the occasional gourmet splurge, I thought that this one was pretty incredible. I'd certainly buy it again.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! I agree, it's definitely on the list. For the purposes of this blog I'm trying to use my cheese budget prolifically so it may be a while before I get it again.
