No need to feel blue with this selection! A trio of mouth-watering blue cheeses spanning a superb range of textures and strength. With scoopable Gorgonzola Dolce, creamy and indulgent from Lomabardia in northern Italy, and crumbly Stilton-style Sparkenhoe Blue made in Leicestershire, this selection culminates in a peppery punch with the iconic French sheep's milk cheese, Roquefort. This trio is a fantastic opportunity to indulge a love of blue cheese and explore the beauty of Penicillin mould with three incredible raw milk cheeses so different in appearance and taste. We've added a box of rustic oatcakes with a hint of sweetness to perfectly complement these savoury cheeses.
For a decadent after-dinner experience you can add a specially selected semi-sweet wine (courier delivery & Aldeburgh collection only). Beacon Down Riesling is a unique English wine from East Sussex. Bright in the glass with flavours of peach, mango and honey we think it has just the right level of sweetness to pair with these beautiful blue cheeses.

Our European cheese selection contains five of Europe’s tastiest and best-loved cheeses. To add a delightful seedy crunch to these exceptional cheeses, we have included a box of Gourmet Sodabread Gluten Free Multiseed Toasts.
French Comté Vieux AOC is made from the rich milk of Montbéliarde cows. It is matured for twice as long as standard Comté for greater sweetness and depth of flavour. Brie de Meaux is another classic taste of France. Soft and creamy, the flavour is nutty with a hint of mushroom. Our third French choice is Morbier. Originally made from the leftover curds of Comté, the distinctive ash line through the centre of this cheese was added for protection until the next day’s curds could be added to complete the cheese. From Spain, we have Picos de Europa, a semi-soft blue-veined cheese made from a blend of pasteurised cow’s and goat’s milk. This unique cheese is wrapped in maple and chestnut leaves. Monte Enebro, another Spanish choice, completes our selection. This incredible complex soft-ripened goat’s cheese is cave cured with a Penicillium Roqueforti rind. Read more

Planning a fondue evening? This fondue selection contains three exquisite Alpine cheeses and a recipe to help you create an authentic fondue at home.
Simply rub a garlic clove over the sides of the fondue pot before pouring in dry white wine. Once bubbling, remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cheeses. Emmental de Savoie PGI provides a buttery base with a delicate, fruity flavour. Le Gruyère Reserve AOP adds floral, nutty and sharp flavours, and Comté Vieux AOC adds sweetness and deep nutty notes. Finish the dish with freshly ground pepper and a glass of Kirsch.
Enjoy with bread, the traditional accompaniment for cheese fondue. This is dipped into the sauce with long-stemmed forks. Remember though, anyone who loses their bread is expected to pay a forfeit!
