This Italian classic has a pungent aroma and a rich, creamy flavour with savoury hints of smoked meats and lightly fried mushrooms. It’s soft and smooth with a creamy finish – enjoy with a beer or glass of Pinot Grigio. Taleggio works well on a cheese platter or use it make a Taleggio, thyme and mushroom pizza – delicious!

Mimolette
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.

Hervé Mons Brebis Fougere
Translate by “Ewe fern”, this semi soft sheep’s milk washed is dressed with a little fern sprig. As the cheese looks not offensive in flavours, after the first bite you will be wowed by a pleasant but strong “sheepish” flavour. The gritty rind fades away quickly in mouth, a long lasting earthy and nutty flavour.

The texture is smooth and even and the flavours are deep and long-lasting – the earthy blue mould and the sweet, milky notes in the buffalo milk are in perfect balance. This farmhouse cheese is made with the milk from the cheese-maker’s own herd of buffalo.

Roquefort AOP
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.
