Castello® BLACK PEPPER CHEDDAR CHEESE SLICES

About

Notes of cracked peppercorn complement the unique sharp and sweet flavours of this sliced cheddar cheese. The spicy flecks mix very well with the creamy texture and leave you with a sensation of something new, something particularly noticeable. These flavourful slices are superb for melting and topping off your grilled chicken or turkey burgers. So, yes, there are good reasons why we call our slices, strikingly spicy.
