Leicester cheese, often called Red Leicester, is an English cheese, made in a similar manner to cheddar cheese, but is crumblier; it is coloured orange by adding annatto extract during manufacture. The "red" in the name is a bit misleading, because there is no other well known Leicester cheese of another colour to so distinguish it by. The fairly mild flavour goes well with most food and wine or beer, and is popurlarly considered to be good with Welsh rarebit and cheese on toast.
