Aran Islands Goats’ Cheese

Gabriel of Aran Goat’s Cheese will introduce you to his herd of goats and take you through the process of making his award winning product before sampling and experiencing the range for yourself. His beautiful Nubian and Saanen goats graze on the unique pastures of the Aran Island. The climate is perfect for the grass herbs as the island is served by the Gulf Stream. The unique diet of the goats gives the cheese its unique,delicious flavour. The dairy is equipped with a 1,000 litre vat, press and moulds. Our herd of 93 adult goats and 70 kids produces approx 1000ltrs of milk a week and 5kg of hard cheese requires 50ltr of milk to produce.
