Our cheesemongers have created a wonderful selection of Summer cheeses for you to enjoy. Our Virtual Tasting Board includes a recording which will be emailed to you, where our senior cheesemonger, Max Melvin, talks you through the cheeses you are eating. Lots of our customers like to buy this and watch it with friends, making a wonderful evening of eating and learning about the cheeses together. Max is a wonderful presenter.

PLEASE NOTE:

During the hot spell we cannot guarantee your cheese will arrive at a chilled temperature even though we have added more frozen blocks to the box. As soon as the cheese arrives at destination please put straight into the fridge. We would suggest you consume the cheeses more chilled rather than bring to room temperature again. However, please think carefully before ordering during this hot spell.

CHEESE

Chabichou | Poitou-Charentes, Unpasteurised Goat's Milk - 1 unit (150g). A soft, fresh tasting cheese, shaped like a gently tapered cylinder. The texture is smooth yet quite close-textured.
St Jude | Suffolk, Unpasteurised Cow's Milk - 1 unit (90g). Made by Julie Cheyney in Suffolk, the milk is slowly and gently turned into curds with little intervention. Simply lifting the curds and ladling into moulds, turning daily until ready for sale. The flavours of the pasture are intact giving the cheese an earthy richness becoming more evident as it ages.
Yoredale | Aysgarth, North Yorkshire, Unpasteurised Cow's Milk - 80g. A traditional farmhouse handmade cheese from a small family farm in Wensleydale. Made slowly to a traditional recipe resulting in a smooth, creamy texture and lovely chewiness too.
Idiazabal | Navarre. Unpasteurised Ewe's Milk - 80g. A lightly smoked cheese made from the Labra breed, indigenous to the mountainous regions around Navarre. Clothbound during the smoking process, to give an extra intensity to the flavours and aromas.
Bleu d'Auvergne | Auvergne, Pasteurised Cow's Milk. 80g. This is normally viewed as a simple-style cheese, yet with a little love and care (affinage) it becomes a rich, strong tasting cheese with a velvety texture. The moist, nutty flavour and beautiful melting quality of the cheese also makes it a perfect medium for cooking, crumbling over salads and steaks and vegetable dishes or stuffing into poultry.
