The Caves

Maturing cheese in caves dates back hundreds of years. The Wookey Hole Caves, with their natural humidity and year round constant temperature provide  the optimum environment for Wookey Holes Cave Aged Cheddar to develop naturally at its own leisurely pace and enable it to retain its moist texture and take on its characteristic earthy flavour.
