Beauvale 250g
Beauvale – Made by Robin Skales in Nottinghamshire
A soft, smooth blue cheese matured for 7 weeks and during this time it becomes similar in texture to a Gorgonzola Dulce but with the fabulous blue pedigree from its older blue stilton also made by Robin. Beauvale takes its name from Vale of Belvoir where it is made and its logo was designed by children at the local Montessori School. This cheese is rich in flavour with savoury tones and a gentle hint of spiciness.
Ogleshield 250g
Ogleshield – Made by Jamie Montgomery in North Cadbury, Somerset
British raclette made using beautifully rich raw Jersey milk by Jamie Montgomery & Wayne Mitchell of Montgomery's cheese-making family. The cheese is washed in special brine every three days to attain a slightly pungent sticky rind, which softens the cheese paste and significantly intensifies its flavour. Excellent when it comes to cooking as it melts brilliantly.
St Jude
St Jude – Made by Julie Cheyney in Bungay, Sulfolk
A lactic style cheese with a wrinkled, mould ripened rind & a smooth paste. Usually eaten between 2-5 weeks old. St. Jude develops from a young, fresh & creamy cheese to more complex flavour leaning towards a buttery, vegetal & grassy profile in the winter when the cows are out to pasture.
Stichelton 250g
Stichelton – Made by Joe Schneider in Welbeck Estate, Nottinghamshire
Juicy acidity and toasty, biscuity notes toward the rind are the hallmarks of Stichelton, though the range of flavours this soft, creamy raw milk blue can exhibit is extraordinary: from crisp green apple right through to beef stock umami. Joe works from a purpose built dairy at Collingthwaite Farm on the Welbeck Estate on the northern borders of Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire and all the milk comes from the herd of 150 Friesian-Holstein cows there. The name Stichelton is taken from the Old Roman village Name of Stilton.
