Country Wheat Long-Fermented Loaf

Hearty wheat • Soft crumb • Deep flavour

Slow fermentation creates the flavour, texture, and keeping quality that makes this Country Wheat artisan-style loaf so special. We give the dough time to fully develop before baking, producing a beautifully balanced loaf with a crisp, rustic crust and a soft, satisfying crumb.

Whole wheat flour gives this loaf its deeper colour, hearty character, and slightly nuttier flavour while still keeping it approachable enough for everyday eating. It has more substance than our Original Long-Fermented Loaf without becoming overly dense or heavy.

Unlike sourdough, our Long-Fermented Loaf has no tanginess—just the comforting taste of well-made bread with subtle complexity and a clean finish. The Country Wheat is especially good toasted, where the crust crisps beautifully and the warm wheat flavour becomes even more pronounced.

Enjoy it on its own, spread with your favourite butter or jam, piled into a sandwich, alongside soup, or simply toasted for breakfast. It’s the kind of versatile loaf that works just as well with something savoury as it does with something sweet.

We bake each loaf fresh in small batches. Every loaf weighs approximately 700g after baking and is sold whole and unsliced to preserve its freshness.

Storage & Freezing: This Country Wheat long-fermented loaf freezes beautifully. Thaw it overnight in the refrigerator. To bring back that fresh-baked texture and crisp crust, warm it in a preheated 400°F oven for 5–10 minutes. If you’re using an air fryer oven, bake for up to 5 minutes before slicing.

Approximate weight: 700g baked loaf
