…to take a few quality ingredients – lush mountain grass, Welsh sea air and fresh, creamy milk from our own flock of French-origin Lacaune sheep – and create deeply flavourful cheese (“caws” in Welsh, pronounced cowse) with influences of the balmy Mediterranean.

So we built a dairy…

…situated on slopes high above the beautiful seaside village of Aberdyfi (Aberdovey), at the mouth of the Dyfi Estuary. Here, on the southern edge of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, our ewes graze the rolling pastureland and we use time-honoured farming methods to create limited batches of hard cheese from their milk.

And we fell in love…

…with the gentle curiosity of the ewes, the rhythms of the wild landscape, the joy of working in tune with the seasons – and the blend of alchemy and artistry that goes into making hand-crafted cheese.

We soon discovered…

…that, quite simply, beautiful pastures make beautiful cheeses!
