Red Dragon Cheddar with Wholegrain Mustard & Welsh Brown Ale (Somerdale)

Cheddar, wholegrain mustard seeds and Welsh brown ale constitute Y Fenni cheese. Red waxed bears
the name of the symbol taken from the Welsh flag. Another Y Fenni cheese have a yellow wax but similarly to Red Dragon it is labeled with a medieval artwork.



This Cheddar Cheese has more appealing name and look than flavor.
When I first tasted it, I was really disappointed that the cheese is not as hot as I would expected. There is plenty of mustard seeds in it, but they are soft and mild. Melting helps to release its tangy flavor.
The cheese is as the Cheddar should be: buttery and creamy.



I believe that the cheddar is worth giving it a try. I appreciate it original farmhouse character and attractive, deliberated design.





It also pairs very well with chicken or turkey breast.
