Gruyère AOC Extra Mature Cheese
If you’re a Gruyère person, this is the cheese for you. It’s sweet, floral and fruity with a brilliant silky texture and crunchy crystals within the cheese that is packed full of immense flavour - setting apart this Gruyère from others. In its early stages it is creamy and nutty, then becomes harder, more earthy and a little saltier. It’s a fantastic cheese with great characteristics that won’t disappoint.

Keens Extra Mature Cheddar Cheese
A tangy and intense farmhouse cheddar, with a distinct fresh citrus bite. The truckles are clothbound and matured for 12 months, giving a rich creamy flavour with a hint of citrus on the finish. This batch of Keens has been matured an extra 6 months to impart an even saltier tang! Ultimately, expect a tangy and intense farmhouse cheddar, with a distinct fresh citrus bite. Tangy and rich, this extra-matured, unpasteurised Cheddar wakes up even the most drab of cheese boards.

La Peral Cheese
A creamy, salty blue cheese with a lovely granular texture. While this is a blue, it’s not too acidic despite the strong flavour. It comes from the Asturias region of Northern Spain and named after a local village.
£7.20
Lancashire Bomb Cheese
Luxuriously creamy, strong and sharp with a slight sweetness and a touch of acid. The bombs have a full flavoured taste that leaves you wanting more. The Lancashire Bomb is presented in a traditional black wax.
£12.50
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.
£9.00
Maida Vale Soft Cheese
This is a semi-soft, washed rind cheese is made from Channel Island cow’s milk and is washed with Soundwave from Siren Craft Brewery whose brewery is situated just 6 miles from their dairy. This west coast IPA helps to promote a tangy, punchy flavour in the cheese while still keeping to the brie code of having a buttery texture. In a nutshell, Maida Vale is pungent, full of flavour but soft, buttery and creamy. A fully-fledged British cheese at its finest.
£7.95
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 process ensures we get the best possible product, with the distinctive saltiness being the hallmark of Parmigiano. 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.
£7.60
Raypenaer Cheese
An insane Gouda, that has been aged for 24 months near Utrecht, Holland. It comes with stunning flavours of caramel, and it has a texture of dreams.

Shropshire Blue
The UK's only raw milk Shropshire Blue! Sparkenhoe's Blue is made using similar methods to how they make their Red Leicester. They add annatto to the milk, giving the cheese its glorious colour.
