Aged cheddar cheese is a type of hard cheese that undergoes an extended maturation process, typically ranging from several months to over a decade. Originating from the English village of Cheddar in Somerset, this cheese variety is distinguished by its sharp, complex flavor profile and firm, crumbly texture, which intensify with age. Unlike mild or medium cheddar, aged cheddar is prized for its depth of flavor, making it a staple in both culinary applications and gourmet food markets.
