From Sarah & Mark Hardy of Tremains Farm, Horsted Keynes, West Sussex

The goat milk is supplied to us by small herd of goats, from a farm in Kent. Although not organic, the goats are free to graze the pastures during the summer, and fed a diet of hay in the winter, when they remain in the buildings out of the weather. “Sister Sarah” is matured for just 4 - 6 weeks. The cheese is very white as goats digest all the carotene in the grass.

The milk is cooled immediately after milking and this results in a mild cheese, with a delicious flavour and without any “goatiness”, which is often associated with goat cheese. In fact most people will not realise that it is a goat milk cheese.

Coated in annatto (a south American berry), gives the cheese a cheerful bright orange rind.
