Cotswold
Visit The Healthy Living Bookshelf:

Not as hard as cheddar, Cotswold has a creamy and full flavor.

Top

Cotswold is a variation of Double Glouster, a hard English cheese similar to cheddar, but milder and less sharp. Traditionally made in the county of Gloucestershire, in the area called the Cotswolds, Double Glouster was originally made from the rich milk of the black cattle of Glouster. This firm cheese is aged for three to four months, so it is not as hard as cheddar. Made with whole milk, it is smooth and creamy, full-flavored, and golden-yellow to orange in color.

Varieties

Double Glouster is now made in both pasteurized and unpasteurized varieties. Traditional makers include Appleby, Quickes, and Smart. Cotswold is a type of Double Glouster to which chopped chives and onions have been added.
