Cornish Kern 250g
£10.25
Cornish Kern– Made by Lynher Dairy in Truro in Cornwall
Kern is 16 months in maturation, more dense in texture and much more intense than Yarg. Catherine Mead and her team have been working on this for years: starting with the idea of a gouda-type recipe, the cheese evolved, and with the addition of Alpine starter cultures the result has something of the flavour you might associate with Comté or Gruyère.
Kern is coated in a black wax-type coating.

Cornish Kern – Cow’s Milk – Pasteurised – Vegetarian (Ponsanooth, Cornwall)
Kern is longer-matured (16 months), more dense in texture and much more intense than Yarg. Catherine Mead and her team have been working on this for years: starting with the idea of a gouda-type recipe, the cheese evolved, and with the addition of Alpine starter cultures the result has something of the flavour you might associate with Comté or Gruyère. Kern is coated in a black wax-type coating. Kern, by the way, is Cornish for ’round’.

Mrs Kirkhams – Made by Graham Kirkham in Goosnargh, Lancashire
Mrs Kirkham's Lancashire is a fantastic, a buttery finish and a flaky texture cows' milk cheese, with delightfully lactic flavour. Made on the Beesley Farm in Lancashire to the same recipe Mrs Kirkham first made it in 1978, though the cheese today is now made by Graham Kirkham, her son. This is the only Lancashire still made with unpasteurised cows' milk and hence the only Lancashire you should ever buy.

This cheese is rich in flavour with savoury tones and a gentle hint of spiciness.

Burford 250g
Burford – Made by David Jowett in the North Cotswolds, Gloucestershire
This brand new cheese from King Stone Dairy is a semi-hard washed rind cow's milk cheese based on an Alpine style and aged for 6 months.
David Jowett of King Stone Dairy in Chedworth , Gloucestershire, wanted to capture the aromatic, herbal and floral flavours of the farm, with the aim to use as much of this aromatic grass-fed summer milk to make this long aged cheese a way of storing that delicious summer milk to be enjoyed long into the winter months.
The result, fruity and pineapple aromas, charred roast onion flavours and an irresistible nuttiness.
