Brillat Savarin with Truffle (Triple Cream) 500g
Just in case the triple cream cheese Brillat Savarin isn’t indulgent enough for you, we have this version with a layer of shaved truffle through the middle. The characteristic light, creamy interior is complimented by the delicate perfume of black truffles – it is like eating whipped cream with truffles. The texture is smooth and soft – not runny, but definitely ‘melt-in-the-mouth’ territory.

Prefere De Nos Montagnes
This Reblochon style cheese is a pasturised version of the classic Reblochon. Made in the Rhone Alps this mild washed rind has a slight scent of the cellar, a creamy texture and a nutty aftertaste. Its delicate and subtle flavours go well with a glass of Savoie wine and perfect to make Tartiflette.
Region: Rhone Alps
Milk: Pasteurised Cow’s Milk

Hervé Mons Pavé du Cardinal
A semi-matured goat’s cheese from Berry in France. The Berry region is well known for ashed goat’s cheese like Selles-sur-Cher, but Pavé du Cardinal is a rare find. Under the light white rind the paste is creamy and oozy. The lactic flavour is rich with a pleasant mouth coating feeling. Matured to perfection from French affineur Hervé Mons.
Region: Centre, France
Milk: Pasteurised Goat
Size: approx 200g each
Brebirousse 1kg square
This delightfully oozy cheese is a mild washed rind style made with 100% sheep’s milk from the Argental region of France (most famously known for Roquefort cheese). When young, the flavours are creamy and slightly sweet, with a hint of mushroomy flavour coming from the light orange rind and a gentle nuttiness characteristic of sheep cheese. More mature cheeses will have a stronger flavour, with more pronounced earthy flavours.
Region: Rhone-Alps, France
Milk: Pasteurised Sheep

Monte Veronese Fresco Dop
Monte Veronese is made with milk from the rich grassy slopes of the Lessini mountains in north-eastern Italy. This young cheese has a supple, springy texture with small eyes throughout and a delicate, milky flavour with a mild, creamy finish. No ‘bite’ – just smooth and gentle all the way. It can be eaten as an everyday table cheese but it also melts well, making it a tasty addition to toasted sandwiches and panini.

Milk: Pasteurised Cow

Comté AOP, matured 36+ months
Our 40 month Comté has been specially matured to develop an amazingly complex flavour that will have you coming back for more and more – sweet roasted nuts, hints of yeastiness, rich cream and an echo of grassy mountain pastures. The texture retains a smooth consistency, but becomes firm and condensed over time. Small, white amino acid crystals can be seen through-out the interior – the sign of a well matured cheese.
Region: Franche-Comté, France
Milk: Unpasteurised Cow
Size: approx 250g wedge cut to order
Délice des Crémiers (Triple Cream)
Délice des Crémiers translates to ‘delight of the cheese-maker’ – and it certainly lives up to its name! Under the thin white rind the interior is super-decadent – rich and creamy with a cakey, whipped texture. There is a note of tangy crème fraîche and a hint of salt on the finish. Enjoy before dinner with a glass of bubbles.
Region: Burgundy, France
Milk Type: Pasteurised Cow
Size: available as a whole wheel (approx 999g)
Ubriaco Prosecco
This wine-soaked cheese is gentler than some of the others from this region. A young mountain cheese is soaked with sparkling Prosecco wine. This results in a mild, yet pleasing marriage between the creamy, milky flavoured cheese and the light fruity notes of the wine. It is matured for a minimum of 3 months. The texture is soft and supple – enjoy before dinner with a glass of something bubbly.
Region: Veneto, Italy
Milk: Pasteurised Cow
Size: approx 250g wedge cut to order
Epoisses Cremiers Selection 250g
One of the ‘super-stinkies’! This runny little cheese is washed with a local grape spirit during its maturation, to encourage the development of a sticky, orange rind with rich mushroomy and cured meat flavours. If you like strong cheese, you will love Epoisses.
Region: Burgundy, France
