Kirkland Signature Coastal Cheddar is a mature English cheddar aged for 15 months at the Ford Farm Dairy along England's Jurassic Coast. This gold medal-winning cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk sourced from the United Kingdom. The cheese features a satisfyingly nutty and sweet flavor profile with a characteristic crumbly texture. Natural calcium lactate crystals create a sought-after crunchiness throughout the cheese, giving it a distinctive mouthfeel that's creamy yet firm.

This award-winning cheddar has earned gold medals at both the British Cheese Awards and International Cheese Awards. The flavor is complex and sharp without being overly salty or sour, striking a perfect balance that showcases its 15-month aging process. Customers describe subtle hints of pineapple sweetness with an intense cheddar flavor that some compare to a parmesan-cheddar hybrid. The cheese is authentically British in character, featuring the crumbly, complex profile traditional English cheddars are known for.

Perfect for sandwiches, grilled cheese, mac and cheese, salads, or enjoyed on its own with sourdough bread. The crumbly texture makes it ideal for sprinkling over fried eggs, mixing into scrambles, or crumbling onto pizzas and burgers. Pairs beautifully with dried cherries, Honeycrisp apples, nuts, bourbon, or sparkling cider. Many home cooks also enjoy smoking this cheese with plum, almond, or apple wood. Suitable for vegetarians.
