Isle of Man Creamery
The Isle of Man is a proud nation of 80,000 inhabitants
and is set in the middle of the Irish Sea.
Our Creamery is at the very heart of the Isle of Man
community. We are a co-operative of family owned dairy
farmers, whose farm-assured herds provide the high
quality milk that gives our cheese its distinctively
creamy full flavour.
All of our milk is produced on the Isle of Man; every
litre that goes into our cheeses comes from the island's
dairy herds. Our cows graze contentedly in the lush
green fields, set among countryside largely unchanged
for centuries, beneath clear pollution-free skies.
Small wonder then, that our cheese is like no other!
rich, creamy and deeply flavoursome.
Our Heritage
Our business was borne out of the challenges to the
Island's dairy farming post World War One, prompting the
Isle of Man Milk Marketing Association to be formed in
1934 which, in 2008, became a limited company. Isle of
Man Creamery.
Faced with frequent disruption to fresh produce
supplies, due to the island's setting in the middle of
the often stormy Irish Sea, the Isle of Man developed a
tradition of self-sufficiency. It was against this
background that we were inspired to set up our
world-acclaimed cheese-making that now reaches the
tables of customers not only in the Isle of Man and the
United Kingdom, but as far afield as Europe and the
United States.
Inspirational Cheese Making
The dramatic unspoiled landscapes and lush rolling
fields of the Isle of Man have inspired artists for
centuries and, in more recent times, our highly skilled
cheese makers, who bring something of the Island's
natural beauty and goodness to every cheese created. The
care taken in our production and maturing processes owes
much to the gentle pace of Island life, summed up in
Manx Gaelic as "Traa dy Liooar" or "time enough".
With such provenance it is not surprising that our
cheeses are winning more awards, and more customers,
every year.
While mindful of our rich and varied past, we are always
looking to the future, developing new techniques, taste
experiences and crafting new speciality cheeses. All our
milk, sourced exclusively from local dairy herds, is
pasteurised then mixed with vegetarian rennet and
non-fast ripening starter cultures, ensuring low levels
of histamine and suitability for vegetarians.
Isle of Man Creamery: respecting tradition, embracing
the future and reviving taste.
