Product Information
A semi-hard cheese from pasteurized whole buffalo milk. Its thin rind covered in pressed ground black pepper encases a compact dry paste with small and even eyes. Its complex olfactory notes include butter, umami, yeast, aromatic herbs like salvia, and floral notes of honey. Sweet mouthfeel, with a balanced saltiness and slight milky and vegetable aromatics. A pleasant consistency thanks to its melt-in-the-mouth and crumbliness.

Occelli al Barolo
Cheese royalty meets wine royalty – once you taste this cheese you will be hooked! Full flavoured ‘testun’ cheeses are coated with the pressed grapes used to make Barolo wine – the flavours of the cheese and grapes mingle together to create a flavour that is bitey, creamy, sweet, winey, buttery and sharp all at once (testun loosely translates to ‘hard-headed’, referring to the texture of the cheese). Once you cut through the coating of crushed grapes, the texture is flaky and melt-in-your mouth soft.

Mimolette 24months+ Matured
Known for its striking deep-orange colour, Mimolette was apparently created to mimic Dutch cheeses during a time of trade restrictions. While the colour may suggest a ‘strong, bitey’ cheese, the flavour is actually quite round and smooth. It has a predominantly hazelnutty flavour with hints of salt and butterscotch on the end palate. Mimolette is very wine friendly, pairing well with a variety of sparkling, white and red wines.

Roquefort AOP Carles
Roquefort is one of the most famous French AOP cheeses. The flavour is big and bold with a burst of spicy blue mould on the front palate. The finish is creamy – but in an entirely different way to a cow’s milk cheese – more grassy and nutty, very deep and lingering. A salty note hums away in the background, bringing balance to all the flavours. Serve the French way – on a baguette with farmhouse butter and truffle honey.

English Cheddar Cave Matured
A classic British cloth-bound cheddar – big and bitey with a hint of cultured butter on the finish. The cloth covering allows the cheese to breath during maturation, creating that distinctive open, crumbly texture. Enjoy with a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon.
Wookey Hole Cave Aged Cheddar is a traditional PDO cheddar made on the Ashley Chase Estate in the heart of West Dorset.
The key ingredient for this unique cheddar is the highest quality rich milk sourced from dairy cows that graze the lush pastures of the surrounding countryside. The cheese is made to traditional methods by a highly skilled team of cheese makers. Each stage of the process is performed by hand, from the turning of the curds to the wrapping of each truckle in cheesecloth.
The Cheddars are then taken to the Somerset Caves to mature naturally in an environment which ensures they remain mouth wateringly moist and packed full of the distinctive, earthy and nutty flavours of the Caves.
Wookey Hole Cave Aged Cheddar is the only PDO traditional West Country Farmhouse Cheddar to be matured in Caves.
