Matured for 12 months, its Dunlop-type characteristics make this a creamier, more subtly flavoured, less acidic cheese than a traditional cheddar. Sealed in black wax.
The Red Dunlop differs from the white only by the addition of the natural colour Annatto, which itself is produced from the highly pigmented sun-dried seeds of the tropical tree Bixa orellana. Silver Medal winner at the British Cheese Awards 2002.
