Yoredale Wensleydale

An exceptional artisan Wensleydale made from raw cow’s milk by Ben and Sam Spence at their family farm in Carperby, North Yorkshire. A rare revival of traditional farmhouse Wensleydale, Yoredale is cloth-bound and carefully matured by the renowned Neal’s Yard Dairy.

With a moist, supple texture and delicate, buttery crumble, the cheese opens with rich milky notes before revealing a bright lemony freshness, subtle buttermilk, and fresh cream. Its natural cloth-bound rind contributes a gentle earthy, mushroom character. Matured for four to six months on wooden shelves, Yoredale is a beautifully balanced expression of traditional Yorkshire cheesemaking—fresh, elegant, and deeply connected to its Dales terroir.
