Product Information
Beaufort is rightfully known as the ‘Prince of Gruyères’ for its smooth texture and lingering flavours of melted butter and sweet floral notes. We select only the d’Alpage (alpine) version: these cheeses can only be made in mountain chalets with rich Summer milk. Beaufort can often seem mild at first, but after a few moments the depth of flavour overtakes your entire palate – creamy, floral, herbaceous and nutty with hints of yeastiness.

Pecorino Di Farindola Presidio Slow Food
This is not any ordinary Pecorino !It’s made from Pig’s rennet which is probably the only cheese in the world using such an old technique, dating to the Roman times. Farindola has been known for it’s flock of sheep and cheese making tradition. Hand crafted in small quantities, Pecorino di Farindola can only be produced by women, who hand down the recipe from generation to generation, with milk sourced from hand-milked sheep that are reared in the wild for a large part of the year. Under the yellow/brown rind, the paste is grainy, straw yellow in colour and slightly moist, even when the cheese has matured for a long time – a result of the rennet and production method. The taste is like no other with musky aromas well balanced by a smooth and creamy texture.
