The Dorset Dairy Co: Bringing Fresh Dairy To The New Forest

Nestled within the picturesque village of Stalbridge, The Dorset Dairy Co. stands tall as a beacon of excellence in the dairy industry. With a commitment to quality, sustainability, and the well-being of their livestock, this family-owned dairy company has carved a niche for itself in the hearts of dairy enthusiasts. At Bellord & Brown, we are proud stockists of Dorset Dairy and love bringing the high-quality produce to our Beaulieu store.

Local Produce Within Hampshire and Dorset

Great Produce Served in the New Forest

At Bellord & Brown, we stock a wide range of Dorset Dairy’s products at our Beaulieu deli; we love their values and great quality so much that we even use the dairy produce in food that we serve from our cafe in the New Forest! From the creamy goodness of fresh milk to the velvety texture of artisanal cheeses, their offerings cater to every discerning palate. Here are some of the standout products that make them different from all the other dairy companies:

-       Farm-Fresh Milk: The Dorset Dairy Co. produces pure, unhomogenised milk that embodies the essence of freshness. Their milk undergoes minimal processing, allowing the natural flavours to shine through, making every sip a delightful experience.

-       Artisanal Cheeses: Dorset Dairy stocks some beautiful cheeses, produced using only milk from Dorset itself.  We stock a wide array of their cheeses in Beaulieu, from the classic Blyton Brie to the luxurious Truffle Wordsworth. Each cheese has its own unique character and taste, they are a testament to the craftsmanship and passion that goes into their dairy production.

-       Natural Kefir: A product that has proven extremely popular, this unhomogenised, semi-skimmed milk is fermented with live kefir and yoghurt cultures. It’s both creamy and tangy! Beyond its great taste, kefir offers a range of health benefits. Its probiotic content supports a healthy gut microbiome, aiding digestion and promoting overall digestive health. Additionally, it is rich in calcium, B vitamins, and protein, making it a nutrient-dense beverage that supports strong bones, boosts the immune system, and promotes a healthy metabolism.

-       Unique Cultured Cream: This cream is skimmed off their semi-skimmed milk and then cultured with lactic bacteria. After a stage of maturation, it naturally thickens and is ready to serve. This cream is very similar to crème fraiche and works extremely well with both sweet and savoury cooking. Not only this, but the fermentation process breaks down the milk protein, casein, which means it is easier to digest compared to most dairy products! 

Fresh Dairy in The New Forest

As pioneers in the dairy industry, the Dorset Dairy Co. constantly strives to innovate and adapt to changing times. Their commitment to sustainable practices extends beyond their farm, as they actively seek partnerships with local conservation organisations, engage in research initiatives, and promote education on sustainable agriculture. By fostering collaboration and raising awareness, the company aims to create a brighter and more sustainable future for the dairy industry.
