Aged to produce a full-bodied ﬂavour proﬁle with a strong to sharp acidic ﬁnish that intensiﬁes with maturity. Strong, full bodied, punchy with a savoury aftertaste.

Aged Airedale was our ﬁrst semi soft style cheese and is totally unique to Whitestone Cheese.

The red wax is applied to the cheese when it is ﬁve days old, this is to help it mature and gives it character. It is aged for a minimum of six months to ensure a full ﬂavour proﬁle.

Aged Airedale is named after the Airedale farming district in North Otago’s rolling lowlands, on the outskirts of Oamaru.
