Ark of Taste
The Ark of Taste is a catalogue of exceptional gastronomic products in danger of disappearing due to current food production and distribution systems. It is part of the network of Arks that make up the International Ark of Taste where, thanks to the contribution of experts and collaborators around the world, there are more than 700 products from 30 countries.
Examples include Artisan Somerset Cheddar made in the traditional way and with unpasteurised milk and Three Counties Perry, until recently a little-known drink, which has been made principally in Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire for centuries.
Slow Food UK is working with our local groups to preserve and support this vital part of our food heritage, raising awareness of these amazing foods and educating the public about their taste, history and importance to our overall food biodiversity.
