BASTILLE DAY BOARD

Celebrate Bastille Day on 14 July with our fabulous cheeseboard featuring some classic French cheeses.

Designed to feed 3 people as part of a cheese and wine evening or 6 people as a cheeseboard after a meal. This would also make a fabulous gift.

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 

• Saint Marcellin, Rhône-Alpes, Unpasteurised Cow's Milk - 1 unit  A classic small medallion-shaped cheese with scattered white and – after several weeks maturation–blue bloomy moulds. The pate is slightly firmer and less lactic when young, becoming more oozing and melting with ripening.
  
  
• Napoleon, Hautes-Pyrénées, Pasteurised Ewe’s Milk -  200g.  In the style of other Pyrénées ewe's milk tommes (such as Ossau) but with a softer texture and a lovely nutty tang. Perfect with wines of the region, but also to be enjoyed with a fine Burgundy as the flavours would definitely enhance a full-bodied drier red.
  
  
• Bleu D'Auvergne, Auvergne, Pasteurised Cow's Milk  - 200g. 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. An extremely versatile cheese, notably simpatico on a cheese board.
