Caciocavallo Podolico -Slow Food Presidio
Caciocavallo is a unique style of cheese commonly found throughout southern Italy. It is always made in a pear shape, then twisted into a knot at the top and tied together in pairs. This particular caciocavallo is made with the milk from Podolico cows – a rare breed of native cow that produces very high quality milk in very low quantities which gives the cheese an amazing aromatic complexity that lingers on the palate. The flavour is full and piccante with a pronounced bite. This cheese is a member of the Slow Food Presidium.

St Nectaire AOP
This pasteurised milk cheese is modelled on the raw milk AOP Saint Nectaire. It’s a medium-strength washed rind style with a dense, buttery texture. The flavours are balanced and slightly savoury with subtle hints of mushrooms and crusty sourdough bread coming through, rounding out to a creamy finish with earthy notes on the back palate. Serve on cheese boards accompanied with fruit jams, marmalade or glacé clementines. It can be enjoyed with bread, or herbed crackers (rosemary, fennel etc). It pairs well with craft beers and most medium-bodied white and red wines, Merlot and Riesling in particular. When young (with a thin, pale orange rind and bulging interior), it can also be used in tartiflette and gratins, although older cheeses are not as well suited to cooking as the flavours become much more intense.
