There’s also Caerphilly cheese, which might be the best I’ve ever had
Caerphilly is featured on the map though
Lol that is so silly, the cheese map for the US just says AMERICAN CHEESE across the whole thing, much superior.
Why can’t everyone else be like us.
Actually I can imagine it being quite suited for cookie cutting

What about California Blue?
How can you put this map and not link to buy every one?! I’m so hungry, I shouldn’t be here.
This is a golden opportunity for some enterprising British soul to start a “cheese of the month” club, shipping internationally, where each month features a specialty from a different party of the UK.
I would totally sign up for that.
I didn’t realize the Brits made so much blue cheese.
If you mean the US, IIRC, we’re in the process of “closing a tariff loophole” where people sending small shipments were exempt from tariffs, which I understand contributed to Temu and Shein doing well because – unlike importers who imported in bulk – they didn’t have to pay tariffs if they shipped directly to customers.

Hmm. Looks like that got backed out, at least temporarily.

And we do have tariffs on cheese. Back around Brexit, the UK attempted to specifically negotiated a “mini-free trade agreement” just for cheese, as I recall.
The U.K. is keen to access the American digital services sector as well as artificial intelligence, while it has outlined aims to reduce trade barriers for British car manufacturers, ceramicists, and producers of the likes of…Cheddar cheese, which currently receives a 17.6 percent levy at U.S. customs.
The negotiations weren’t successful.
Hmm. It looks like Canada has far more enormous tariffs on British cheese:

Since the beginning of the year, UK cheese exporters have seen a 245% tariff placed on British cheese going to Canada, impacting prices.
Lmao UK thinks they’ve got the “real cheddar”.
What is “real cheddar”?
I’m just making a joke about the number of times a strong Cheddar shows up as a regional specialty, including “Seriously Strong Cheddar”.
I mean, “Cheddar”, the place where the cheese assumedly originated is in the UK.
Ah, what are the summers like in Seriously-Strong-Cheddar?
I don’t see Red Windsor on there, which instills grave doubts as to the merits of this map.
I really want more information on this wiki page, it’s nice that it explained the marbling is from mixing in red wine or porto, but would be nice to know more about how it originated, when, etc.
There will be a bloke somewhere on that map that has travelled all over the country to taste all of them.
