Cheese Tasting for Two at The Blaenafon Cheddar Company

Cheese lovers, gather round! Get ready to indulge in a delicious journey through the world of Welsh cheeses, expertly guided by the passionate makers at The Blaenafon Cheddar Company. Nestled in the heart of the World Heritage site of Blaenafon, South Wales, this cheese-tasting experience is one you won’t forget. From hand-crafted cheddars to creamy goat's cheese, every bite is a taste of tradition.

The star of the show is their incredible range of handmade cheeses, including the famous Pwll Mawr cheddar – matured at the bottom of Big Pit mining museum’s mine shaft! You’ll also savour unique flavours like Pwll Ddu (Black Pool), which is infused with mustard, leeks, and The Reverend James Welsh ale for a savoury punch. Or take on the spicy Anadl y Ddraig (Dragon’s Breath), a chili cheddar with just the right amount of sweetness and creaminess.

Your tasting experience starts with a warm welcome, accompanied by tea or coffee, as you learn about the company and their delicious cheeses. Then, it’s time to sample between 10 and 13 mouth-watering cheeses – a true feast for your taste buds!

Located in a historic and scenic area, Blaenafon also offers plenty of attractions to explore before or after your tasting, like The National Coal Museum and Blaenafon’s Heritage Railway. Make a day of it!

And if you fall in love with these delightful cheeses (which you undoubtedly will), you’ll have the chance to buy your favourites, as well as other local products, to take home.

So why wait? Book your tasting today and treat yourself to a cheesy adventure in South Wales – you’ll leave with full bellies and happy hearts!
