Lord of the Hundreds
A unique, handmade, open textured cheese which is made to a closely guarded recipe. Firm, tough rind on the outer skin, which contains a moist, nutty sweet cheese on the inside - a young British style Manchego. Made in the heart of rural Sussex, this is a delightful example of an excellent, well-made raw milk cheese with bags of flavour. Try it melted with Chorizo sausage on an open baguette for a quick, tasty lunch.

Le Pampille D'Auvergne
A small washed rind cheese with a supple texture and fruity flavours reminiscent of a good Reblochon. The rich interior quickly ripens to a very smooth, luscious paste. Particularly delicious from April to October when the new seasons milk is readily available

Blue Cheshire
A handmade, farmhouse Cheshire, with light blueing distributed throughout the cheese. The flavour is smooth, floral and herbaceous with a wonderful blue sharpness on the finish. and a natural rind that develops with maturation, allowing the cheese to age without desiccation

Delice de Bourgogne
This decadent triple-cream cheese was the creation of the celebrated 18th Century gastronome, Brillat Savarin. He blended full-fat cow’s milk with fresh cream, creating an incredibly rich, full-flavoured cheese with a smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. The remarkably pungent aroma of Delice de Bourgogne belies the velvet-smooth texture and subtle taste of this cheese. Similar to the classic Brie in both appearance and texture, this sumptuous cheese delivers an extra triple-cream punch to the palate. Its outside is yellowish-white in colour, with a soft, chalk-like dusty rind.
