This is a camembert-style sheep cheese from Shepherd's Manor Creamery. They are known for their delicious, delicate cheeses. It is a young cheese so it will get stronger as it ages. Best to eat it shortly after you purchase. Goes great with balsamic and fresh fruit or jams.
Shepherds Manor Creamery produces artisan sheep cheese specializing in raw sheep's milk cheese. The farm is located in the beautiful countryside of Carroll County, Maryland.
Sheep milk cheese is lactose issue friendly! Easier to digest than cows milk cheese, it is creamy, rich in protein, and high in nutrients.
The farm and creamery are run by Colleen and Michael Histon. When they began this journey, they traveled to several sheep dairy farms and decided to embark on raising dairy sheep and producing farmstead sheep's milk cheese. They purchased lambs in Virginia and Wisconsin. Colleen is the main cheese maker. Farm tours are available as per their website.
Other cheese options they make are available through Grassfed on the Hill upon request.
