Petit Langres AOC
Weight: 180g.

This allows the brine to pool in the crater of the cheese, and seep slowly into the interior of the cheese to give it its richer consistency, pungent nose and fruity flavour. Pairing Suggestion - Lemon Cheese Preserve The individual cheese weighs 180g.
Snowdonia Smoked
Weight: 200g.
Smoked Snowdonia is a mature cheddar style cheese that is naturally smoked over beechwood chippings, which allows a smokey flavour to run throughout the cheese.
