Lincolnshire Poacher is a hard unpasteurised cow's milk cheese that is generally of a cylindrical shape with a rind resembling granite in appearance.[1] It is made at Ulceby Grange Farm in Alford, Lincolnshire, by craft cheesemaker Richard Tagg.[2] The cheese is matured for between 14 and 24 months, depending on when the milk was collected.[3]
