Red Anster

St Andrews Farmhouse Cheese Company

£5.7

A delicate, crumbly cheese – reminiscent of Caerphilly. This is the flavour added sister cheese to Anster, with added Annatto, fresh garlic and fresh chives. The flavour is mild, with an onion flavour on the finish and cellar- ish, almost mushroomy, notes next to the natural rind. Typically aged for 2 – 4 months. Please Note: All of our cheeses are handcut to order, and as such, weights may vary slightly, but will always be within 20g of the weight stated.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as ST. ANDREWS FARMHOUSE CHEESE COMPANY LIMITED, number SC324967. Checked 2026-09-06.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
