Durrus is a soft Irish cheese made from cow’s milk. With its washed orange rind, it has been produced since 1979 by Jeffa Gill, and is a delight for gourmets who like to round off a meal with bread and cheese!
Durrus is a washed-rind cheese produced on a single farm in Ireland. The project was carried out in the Coomkeen valley, near the village of Durrus, on the Sheep’s Head peninsula (Co. Cork).
The cheese is made from local milk, and is matured using traditional methods. In terms of taste, Durrus is a creamy cheese, whose flavor and aroma become stronger with age.
It’s one of the best-selling cheeses in Ireland! It is easily found in Ireland’s supermarkets, as well as in small craft shops. A sure bet!
