Caws Cenarth, Thelma’s Original Caerffili
This is where it all began. Thelma’s Original Caerffili is the cheese revived Welsh farmhouse cheesemaking in the 1980s, handcrafted by Thelma Adams herself - matriarch of the family behind Caws Cenarth.
Made to a traditional recipe in the heart of Carmarthenshire, this Caerffili is fresh, crumbly, and lightly citrusy, with a subtle minerality that reflects its terroir.
Unlike its mass-produced counterparts, Thelma’s Caerffili is crafted in small batches using organic cow’s milk, then matured for just the right time to preserve its clean, delicate character. It’s a proud nod to heritage, resilience, and the quiet power of doing things properly.
