11 MILLBROOK DAIRY M illbrook Dairy’s 1057 is inspired by a defining moment in Scottish history – the year King MacBeth met his end at Lumphanan, marking the fall of one of the last Celtic kings. And today, 1057 Cheddar cheese is crafted exclusively from rich Scottish cow’s milk, sourced from dairy herds grazing on the lush pastures of Scotland’s glens and lochs. The country’s unique climate and fertile landscapes contribute to 1057’s deep, complex flavour, making it a true product of its origins. Scottish provenance is at the heart of 1057. Every element, from the milk to the maturing process, is deeply tied to Scotland’s rich dairy heritage. This Cheddar is more than just a cheese – it’s a reflection of the land it comes from. The rolling hills, pure air, and traditional cheesemaking expertise all combine to create a Cheddar that is unmistakably Scottish in both character and taste. With its bold, full-bodied flavour, 1057 proudly delivers a true taste of Scotland. 1057 is specially hand-selected from Scotland’s finest cheddars and aged for a minimum of 14 months to achieve its signature depth of flavour. The result is a perfect balance of bold and punchy with a smooth, creamy undertone. The texture is firm yet open enough to deliver the rugged, crumbly bite that Cheddar’ lovers appreciate. Each mouthful unfolds with rich, savoury complexity, making 1057 a commanding cheese with a regal presence – fitting, given its name.
