The striking color and taste of Sage Derby
Sage Derby is one of the oldest and most special cheeses from England. Originally, this cheese was exclusively made for special occasions such as Christmas and harvest festivals, but fortunately we can now enjoy it all year round. The cheese is enriched with fresh herbs and sage, which not only provides a beautiful green marbled appearance, but also gives a wonderful herbal aroma to the mild, creamy Derby cheese.
The texture of the cheese is supple and smooth, comparable to a young Cheddar. The taste is accessible, mild and has a fresh, herbaceous undertone of sage. Sage Derby is not only a spectacular eye-catcher on a cheese board, but also fantastic to melt over a warm casserole, in a grilled cheese sandwich or to use in fresh salads. Because this cheese is prepared with vegetarian rennet, it is also an excellent choice for vegetarians.
Freshly cut from the knife for optimal quality
At GoudaCheeseShop.com we treat this classic English cheese with the greatest care. As soon as you place your order, we cut the Sage Derby fresh from the large cheese wheel. Immediately afterwards, we pack your piece tightly and airtight in a vacuum. To protect the creamy texture and the unique herbal aromas during the journey, we always ship your order with a cooling pack. This way you bring fresh top quality into your home.
