About the Cheese
Experience the rich history and flavour of Caboc, a unique Scottish cheese with roots dating back to medieval times.
Known as the ‘chieftain’s cheese,’ Caboc was originally created by Mariota de Ile, who skillfully transformed thick cream into a delicacy matured in barrels, rather than churning it into butter.
This artisan cheese features a washed rind and boasts a high butterfat content, giving it a sumptuous, creamy texture.
Rolled in pinhead oatmeal, Caboc offers a delightful nutty flavour and buttery that perfectly complements its rich creaminess.
Enjoy this exceptional cheese responsibly, perhaps paired with a wee dram for a truly authentic Scottish experience.
Cheesemaker: Highland Fine Cheeses
Highland Fine Cheeses, passionately created in Tain, Scotland, came to life on Blarliath Farm. This small business operates from the dairy on the farm, producing a unique collection of artisan cheeses.
Founded by Reggie and Susannah Stone, the farm’s cheesemaking legacy began with a complaint about the lack of traditional Crowdie cheese, leading Susannah to start producing it herself.
Today, their son Rory Stone heads the company, focusing on mould-ripened cheeses using milk from local farms. The Stone family’s dedication to traditional methods and high-quality ingredients ensures that each cheese they produce is a true reflection of the Highland’s rich dairy heritage.
