Langres Soft Cheese
Langres cheese is a rich, soft French washed-rind cheese with a smooth texture, fruity flavour and a stronger aroma than taste. Unparalleled in richness, smooth and supple texture. This is another smelly French cheese to delve into and tickle the taste buds! This cheese is milder than the renowned Epoisses but it is still salty and strong on the nose. Each bite leaves a melt-in-the-mouth feeling offering complex fruity flavours for you to indulge in. Cute story alert!! Most cheese is usually flipped to have two flat sides, but langres is left on one side creating a natural dip in the top. This is because the french have langres as a celebratory cheese - so when they go to have it, they would cut a cross in the dip the night before and would pour prosecco into the cheese - the next day they would cut it open and enjoy this liquid gold concoction.
£9.50
Mahon Cheese
This dense, crumbly cheese comes straight from Menorca. It is a DOP cheese meaning it can only be made there. This cheese is particularly special as it's made in square rounds and is washed in olive oil and paprika, giving it a soft, fruity flavour.

Montagnolo Affine Cheese
A fantastic German cheese! Montagnolo Affine is a surface-ripened, triple cream cheese with a soft, velvety natural rind. This is a wonderful blue to try for those who may not be the biggest blue fans - as it comes with a delicious saltiness that's hard not to like. Voted the world's best cheese 2 years in a row we dare you to take the plunge and see what all the fuss is about!

Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese
Parmigiano Reggiano is Italy’s most famous cheese, if not the World’s most famous. All wheels are inspected at 12 months. The cheeses of the highest quality are then selected to further mature to 30 months.

This cheese has been aged for 30 months, meaning it is rich in flavour, incredibly crumbly and grainy in texture and just done to perfection.
