what is your favorite "bushcraft" cheese?

[Realbark]

Processed slices or primula for me tho at home i eat proper cheese.

 

[Teepee]

Colliers extra mature cheddar-tangy and full of salt crystals.

 

[roger-uk]

Good Stilton or Blue on Krackawhaet with salted butter

NOM NOM

Blaenafon smoked cheddar, made by Black Mountain smokery. Matured at the bottom of a mine, then oak smoked. Fabulous, and it doesn't go all sweaty.

 

[Salaud]

Can I invite myself round for supper? Sounds scrumptious. Can't beat a plain ol jacket spud and mature chedder either.

I love a truckle of Black Bomber...or the garlic one...or the ginger one mmmmm

 

[Toddy]

The little wax covered truckles are very good handy for camping too and Josh is right, the wax does burn. Stinks sometimes though..........what is it made from ? it's not beeswax, is it parafin wax ?

Norwegian goats cheese. It's weird quite sweet "Caramacy" brown stuff from the mountains. Somewhere between fudge and cheddar. Sounds odd, but it's delicious. Espeicially good with Marmite for a cheesy sweet and salty Anglo-Norwegian cross over.

Yep coloured paraffin wax Mary - you can buy it from cheese makers shops and coat your own favourite hard cheese. I have ambient stored cheddar for 2+ years in wax

Had some of that from Molly Sharps cheese shop in Selby. Jury is still out. Prefer my cheeses tangy and salty.

+1 for the primula. A sqeezy cheese buttie can be the saviour of a drunken camping trip.

However, eating a full block of philadelphia does not help matters

 

[John Fenna]

Primula is not cheese, nor is Baby bell - they are cheese substitutes!
Great cheeses for bushy trips include parmesan and a real cheddar (one that is so mature it bites back and makes your gums tingle, cannot be cut with even the sharpest knife it is so crumbly and actually crunches under your teeth).
There are several small cheese makers around where I live that turn out real cheeses about the size of slightly flattened cricket balls covered in wax.
If you like cheese but want the convenience of wax (a la Baby bell as mentioned) then these are your boys!

 

[HillBill]

I like a nice Vintage cheddar. Colliers is good, so is Lake district vintage. I partial to the odd french cheese too. Roule is particularly good stirred into some pasta to give it a lovely creamy sauce

 

[Retired Member southey]

Cheddar, mature enough that its impossible to cut without it crumbling.

 

[sandbender]

Home made goat cheese, wrapped in freshly baked nan bread for travel. Very tasty and the smell keeps the mosquitoes at bay.

 

[FGYT]

Sorry dont ruff it any more
