Sparkenhoe, made by David and Jo Clarke, is England's only unpasteurised Red Leicester cheese. It's the first to be produced on Sparkenhoe Farm since 1875. Aged for 18 months, it is creamy and mellow, with a slightly flakey texture. The addition of natural annatto gives the cheese its deep orange-red colour.

May have naturally occurring blue veins which add further complexity.

Pairing: Chenin Blanc or India Pale Ale, No 93 Ale Chutney.
