The new dairy brand is making a "stand against the bland" in a bid to champion exceptional quality and traditional recipes.

The launch will include a range of downright delicious everyday cheeses made with fresh Yorkshire milk and each "aged to perfection".

This includes an Extra Mature Yorkshire Cheddar, aged for 15 months to give it a strong and rugged flavour, a deliciously nutty Yorkshire Red, which spends 10 months developing its rich depth of flavour, and finally a buttery Double Yorkshire, aged for seven months for a smooth creamy texture and tangy finish.

"The Yorkshire Creamery cheeses taste fantastic, and look brilliant as well."

David Hartley, Managing Director of Wensleydale Dairy Products spoke about the exciting announcement; said: "The Yorkshire Creamery is a range of, honest, tasty, authentic products made with character and integrity.

"It tastes like it ought to and that makes every day eating just that little bit better. People don’t want to settle for mediocre lunches, dinners or snacks.
