“In 1989 we started milking a small flock of Friesland sheep, and in 1990 started producing our organic “Cairnsmore” ewes cheese. In recent years we have extended our range to include goats’ cheese and organic cows’ cheeses.’ These days they buy in goat and ewe milk but still milk their own herd of cows.
In 2015 they launched “Millairies” – a semi -hard cheese rinded in their cheese cellar under the mill. It is made with cows’ and ewes’ milk. In 2015 they won “Dairy Provider 2015” at the Food Awards Scotland.”
