Applewood, or Applewood smoked cheddar, is a round, white smoke-flavoured Cheddar cheese that is manufactured by the Ilchester Cheese Company in Somerset, England. Similar smoked cheddar is produced in other countries such as Canada and the United States.
Applewood smoked cheddar is a fairly dense semi-hard cheese. Applewood is not smoked, but is instead treated with an artificial smoke flavouring. The cheese is coated with mild paprika, giving it a golden-amber appearance. The cheese itself is rather soft in some cases, making it difficult to grate. The flavour of the cheese, although smoked, does not leave a burnt aftertaste.
