Tasting notes:

Baron Bigod is the only traditional raw milk Brie-de-Meaux style cheese produced in the UK and one of only a handful of its type in the world to be made by the farmer on the farm.  Fen Farm’s Baron Bigod is made by hand in small batches, very early in the morning so that  they can use the raw milk still warm, straight from the cow at the perfect temperature for cheesemaking! The mould cultures are added to the warm morning’s milk and it is gently gravity fed into small vats just a few metres from the milking parlour, where the rennet is added. The curds are carefully hand-ladled into large moulds, using traditional pelle-a-brie ladles and the young cheeses are hand salted and then aged for up to 8 weeks in a cave-like environment.  Its flavours, aromas and characteristics change with the seasons. It is a unique expression of the incredible milk of the free-ranging Montbeliarde cows and the diversity of their wildlife-rich grazing marshland.  A true and edible account of the “terroir” of Fen Farm’s special part of Suffolk, nestled in the elbow of the Waveney River Valley.
