Bottom Tier — Montagnolo Affiné 2kg
Made in the Allgäu region of Germany, Montagnolo Affiné is a triple-cream soft blue cheese. Rich and buttery with a gentle blue tang, it’s wonderfully creamy and an excellent choice for those who prefer a milder blue.
Second Tier — Baron Bigod 1kg
Made by Jonny Crickmore at Fen Farm Dairy in Suffolk, Baron Bigod is a Brie de Meaux-style soft cheese: rich, earthy and creamy with complex, lingering flavours.
Third Tier — Cornish Yarg 1kg
Wrapped in edible, hand-picked nettle leaves, Cornish Yarg is a Caerphilly-style semi-hard cheese with a gently crumbly texture and fresh, lactic flavours that become more mushroomy towards the rind.
Fourth Tier — Chaource 250g
A soft, bloomy-rinded cheese from the Champagne region of France. Fresh and lactic when young, with crème fraîche flavours that become richer, more buttery and vegetal as the cheese matures.
Top Tier — Dorstone 180g
Made by Neal’s Yard Creamery in Herefordshire, Dorstone is a turret-shaped goat’s cheese rolled in edible vegetable ash. Bright and citrusy when young, it develops a delicate mould-ripened rind and greater depth as it matures.
