Pack includes
KEENS EXTRA MATURE CHEDDAR - Weight: 200g.
An extra mature, award-winning, very creamy yet strong traditional cheddar with a fullness of flavour rarely found today.
SWALEDALE TRADITIONAL - Weight: 200g.
Swaledale Traditional is based on an ancient recipe developed hundreds of years ago and has similar characteristics to a farmhouse Wensleydale, a brilliant alternative, but with softer and creamier notes and more delicate less astringent flavours.
BARON BIGOD - Weight: 200g.
Baron Bigod is an exquisite Suffolk made, bloomy, pasteurised cows milk cheese in the style of a classic Brie-de-meaux. A full-flavoured soft cheese with a nutty, mushroomy rind.
COLSTON BASSETT STILTON PDO - Weight: 200g.
Regarded as one of the best traditionally made, naturally crusted Stiltons in the country, this cheese is mature, with good blueing and rich, deep, herbaceous flavours that linger on the palate. As it matures the flavour gets saltier and the texture becomes drier.
GORWYDD CAERPHILLY - Weight: 200g.
Made following a traditional recipe and working the curds by hand, the cheeses are usually matured for a minimum of three to four months to give a wonderfully deep flavour that is yet still fresh and clean tasting with slight citrus notes, combined with a surprisingly creamy, moist texture.
APRICOT & WALNUT CHUTNEY Weight: 200g.
A chutney with almost as much personality as it has flavour! Expect notes of sweet apricots, lightly roasted walnuts, and a subtle blend of carefully balanced spices, all layered together to create an impeccable pairing for almost any cheese.
FOUR SEED SOURDOUGH CRACKERS - Weight: 100g.
Unique crackers made by a local bakery. Made from the starter used for their fresh sourdough loaves, creating toasty, crunchy, robust crackers.
Please note each cheese is cut to 200g by hand, therefore the weights listed are approximate. We work very hard to cut them as accurately as we can.
Delivery
We send our cheese by Royal Mail Tracked 24, with next-day delivery available across all UK postcodes for £4.99 per parcel. Orders over £60 qualify for free delivery.
We carefully pack every order to help keep your cheese in the best possible condition during transit. Royal Mail are very reliable, and most parcels arrive within 24 hours, but occasional delays can happen.
If you’re ordering cheese for a special occasion, party or event, we recommend having it delivered a couple of days beforehand. This gives you some extra time in case of an unexpected courier delay and allows the cheese to rest and reach its best before serving.
We currently deliver throughout the UK but do not offer international delivery.
How We Pack Your Cheese
Every order is cut and packed by hand, fresh to order by our team of cheesemongers.
Your cheese is wrapped in breathable waxed paper, which allows it to breathe while helping to protect it during transit and in your fridge. It is then placed inside a thermal foil pouch with a frozen gel pack to keep it cool on its journey. The gel pack will naturally defrost during transit; this is completely normal.
Finally, everything is carefully packed into a branded box to keep your order safe and presentable when it arrives.
We’re also conscious of the environmental impact of packaging. Around 95% of our packaging is recyclable or reusable, and we’re continually looking for ways to reduce waste and make our business more sustainable. We believe great cheese should be enjoyed with consideration for the planet, too.

FAQ
HOW SHOULD I STORE MY CHEESE ONCE IT ARRIVES?
Cheese is best kept in the fridge wrapped in the waxed paper or packaging it arrives in. Avoid plastic wrap, as cheese needs to breathe.
HOW LONG WILL MY CHEESE LAST?
Most cheeses will last 1-2 weeks if stored properly. Harder cheeses tend to last longer than soft cheeses.
DO YOU DELIVERY NATIONWIDE?
Yes, we deliver throughout the UK mainland. Some remote areas may have longer delivery times.
WHEN WILL MY CHEESE ORDER ARRIVE?
Orders placed before 12pm are dispatched the same day for next-day delivery. We deliver Tuesday to Friday.
