Cornish Yarg

Cornish Yarg comes from the Lynher Dairy at Netherton Farm, Upton Cross. This farm is part of the Duchy of Cornwall Estate and has always been a dairy. The Horrells have lived here since the "˜60's. Cornish Yarg was invented by Welsh cheese makers, Mr. and Mrs. Gray, 15 years ago based on a 13th Century recipe. The name itself is their name spelt backward. Mike Horrell bought the recipe from the Grays on the suggestion of the Duchy of Cornwall Estate to add value to their milk by making cheese. Mike uses pasteurized milk from his Friesians grazing on the land bordering the "Cheese Ring"
