Kerrygold Irish cheese
Kerrygold Aged Cheddar, Blarney. Dubliner and Chardonnay
When you think of St. Patrick's Day and Ireland, the first thing that pops in your head is the color green and of course beer. Last year Ireland drunk 694 million pints of beer. That is a lot of beer! Ireland is also known for excellent dairy and especially cheese. Ireland has lush green grass where the cows can graze for months, which results in mouth-watering cheese. Kerrygold Irish Cheese prides themselves by having their cows graze for at least 300 days before they produce any butter or cheese.

As we all know wine and cheese go hand and hand. Why not celebrate St. Patrick's Day with some authentic Irish cheese and your favorite wine.
