Selle-sur-Cher Cheese
U

Selle-sur-Cher Cheese

THIS WILL BE BACK IN STOCK ON THE WEEK COMMENCING THE 25TH OCTOBER - THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE. A soft cheese with a natural rind, Selle Sur Cher is fine and silky. It stands out for its peculiar shape, thanks to filling pyramid-shape moulds with a ladle during manufacture. You’ll also recognise its grey-blue moulds that form on its round disc coating as it matures, thanks to a dusting of charcoal ash. It’s a whole goat’s milk cheese, so it’s strong in flavour with a salty rind.

Shropshire Blue

Colston Bassett Shropshire Blue, from the Nottinghamshire dairy behind Colston Bassett Stilton. Annatto in the milk gives it a striking orange colour, with blue veins running through. Creamier and more mellow than Stilton, and a lovely way into blue cheese.

Smoked Northumberland Cheese

Smoked Northumberland Cheese

This is a strong place to start on a journey into artisan smoked cheese. It has won multiple awards and for good reason! It is cold-smoked over wood chippings for 12 hours, to develop a bronzed outer core and a beautifully smoky taste.  Smoked Northumberland cheese is the real deal; once the cheese has been smoked for 12 hours, it is then matured for 3 months to deepen the flavour.
