Berkswell is a hard cheese, made at Ram Hall Farm near Berkswell, West Midlands, England. It is made using unpasteurised ewe milk and animal rennet. The moulds of cheeses are left in plastic kitchen colanders which give the cheese its distinctive shape. Berkswell may be compared to a mature pecorino.[1][2][3][4]

In 2017, Berkswell won Supreme Champion at the Artisan Cheese Awards.[5]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
