As the leaves begin to turn and the days grow a little cooler, we’re celebrating the flavours of home with a classic autumnal bake.

Our Somerset Apple Cake brings together sweet, seasonal apples, warming cinnamon and ginger. Made with Wyke Butter fresh from our herds that graze the Somerset pastures, it really is a taste of our corner of the West Country. 🍂

While the tools and technology have evolved over the years, the hard work, dedication and family values behind our Cheddar have remained the same.

For over 160 years, we’ve been crafting Cheddar here in Somerset, with four generations of the Clothier family keeping our cheesemaking traditions alive.

Long before we began making England’s Cheddar, our family were dairy farmers, working the land here in the beautiful Somerset countryside. It’s a tradition that has carried on through the generations and is still very much part of life at Wyke today.

Our own cows graze these fields and produce the delicious milk that goes into our Cheddar, bringing together generations of farming and cheesemaking in every bite. It's the Wyke way.

Today we’re celebrating 20 years of our Master Cheese Grader, Diane Cox! 🧀

Di is one of just a handful of female Master Cheese Graders in the UK, and her experience, dedication and wonderfully fine sense of smell are a very important part of what makes our Cheddar so special. In fact, we value Di’s nose so highly, it’s insured for £5 million!

Di reckons she eats around seven times more cheese than the average adult in England, although most of that is very much part of the job! Using her cheese iron, she takes samples from our Cheddar throughout the ageing process, checking every batch for flavour, aroma and texture. It’s her job to know when each cheese has reached its best, and that each one has the distinctive character we’re looking for.

Twenty years and an awful lot of Cheddar later, we’re very lucky to have her. A huge thank you to Di for everything she does.

While we’re proud of our history, dating back to 1861 and beyond, we’re also keen adopters of technology that helps us work closer with nature. Read our new blog to find out how we’re using two ground-breaking innovations to improve animal welfare and biodiversity on the farms that produce our milk.

For Rich Clothier, cheesemaking is in the blood. As our MD and a third-generation cheesemaker, he’s been around Cheddar for as long as he can remember, and grading cheese has been part of his life since he was a boy.

Today, he’s still using that same knowledge and experience to judge when our Cheddar is just right, and ready to go out under the Wyke name. It’s a craft that’s been passed down through the family, and one we’re proud to carry on.
