Dorset Drum was a small farmhouse cheddar made in Dorset, England. The cheese was of a medium-strong flavour and the clothbound truckle was usually matured for between 6 and 9 months. They varied in size from 400g to 2kg but were always cylindrical in shape, hence the name.
The cheese was produced by Denhay Farm near Bridport in west Dorset.[1] Production ceased and the last stocks were maturing in 2013. There is an export black wax-coated cheddar bearing the same name, but it is not the true Dorset Drum.[2]

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.
