The Shorrock family have been producing this cheese since 1923, and Andrew has been making the bomb since the mid 80s when a friend moved to America and begged him to send some cheese. They use milk from their herd of Holstein Fresian cows and the Lancashire Bomb is aged for 24 months until it bursts with flavour. In addition to this original Lancashire Bomb Shorrock's now produce a variety of different flavours, this includes the Vintage Gold which is an extra year matured.

The majority of our products are perishable so we advise they should be chilled as soon as possible once delivered.Matured for 24 months, it has a wonderfully creamy texture and strong mature flavour – a proper Tasty Lancashire Cheese. Crumbly, with a moist creamy texture yet strong flavour resulting from the cheese being matured over two years. The cheese is matured for at least two years, giving it an exceptional creaminess and depth of flavour. Croquettes often use mozzarella, but traditional British croquettes use Lancashire cheese so here’s a version using Shorrock’s Lancashire Bomb.
