Old Ford

Mary Holbrook of Britain's Sleight Farm created Old Ford, a semi-hard, raw goat's milk cheese. Old Ford used to ripen quickly in three months during the summer when temperatures were higher, but it took eight months in the autumn to reveal its best characteristics. Autumn-made cheeses were often quite dense and intense by the time they were sold. With a reasonable price of $50 per pound when compared to other cheeses on Toplist's list of the most expensive cheeses, Old Ford is worth trying at least once. It is actually quite yummy!

Old Ford is made with goat's milk and is hand-pressed. The cheese is firm, crumbly, dense, and savory, and looks coconut-like. Old Ford had a natural brown rind, a delectable crumble, and a savory snowy white interior. Unfortunately, Mary Holbrook died in 2019, and her signature cheese creations are no longer in production.

Price: About $50 per pound
