Monthly Cheese Selection  

What are you waiting for?



If you find the idea of three perfect cheeses arriving on your doorstep exciting, then make a date with our monthly cheese selection.
We choose cheeses from what is in season and in the best condition, and we provide detailed cheese notes to chew on.
It's not a club, because you may buy one month's selection a year, all twelve, or simply dip in and dip out whenever you choose - and of course the selection makes a wonderful present for a cheese-lover.
Every selection contains around 700 g of freshly cut and individual cheeses (enough for 6-8 people) PLUS a pack of our own The Fine Cheese Co. Crackers ( a different one every month).
Our monthly selection arrives on the first Thursday of each month, ready for the weekend.

A monthly selection costs £36 including overnight delivery to most UK mainland destinations.
6 selections cost £190 delivered, if paid for in advance (save £26).
12 selections cost £360 delivered, if paid for in advance (save £72).

Monthly Cheese Selection – March 2010

Hafod Welsh Cheddar (200g)
Hafod is a traditional hard cheese handmade by Sam and Rachel Holden on Wales’ longest certified organic dairy farm, Bwlchwernen Fawr. They only use the raw milk from their 65 Ayrshire cows to make Hafod. Ayrshire milk is rich in butterfat and protein, and is widely regarded as being ideally suited to cheesemaking. It is this unique combination of creamy organic Ayrshire milk and traditional cheesemaking techniques that give Hafod its buttery, rich and nutty flavours. The name - Hafod (pronounced Havod) – is Welsh for summer place or pasture. In the farm’s case, Hafod is an area of meadow next to the river Aeron where all the cows graze as heifers before joining the milking herd. Bwlchwernen Fawr has been farmed organically for 35-years, by Sam’s father Patrick Holden, Director of the Soil Association.

Crozier Blue (250g)
Crozier Blue was developed by the maker’s of Cashel Blue who have a long experience of Blue Cheese Making. This Farmhouse Cheese is produced from the milk of a flock of sheep recently established on the limestone pasturelands near Cashel, Co. Tipperary. Throughout the milking season the ewes are grass fed grazing the fertile grasslands of Tipperary producing the distinctively flavoured milk that gives Crozier a smooth buttery texture & a naturally sweet flavour balanced by a mild saltiness and delicious blueness.

Rachel (225g)
Rachel is made by Pete Humphries at White Lake Cheeses which is based near Glastonbury. The cheese is made from the milk of a herd of goats owned by Pete’s business partner, Roger. Pete loves experimenting with new recipes and he developed this rind washed goat’s milk cheese several years ago. There is no British tradition of washing the rind of goats’ milk cheeses so this is a very rare cheese which has become a firm favourite among goats’ cheese enthusiasts. Pete has an eccentric tendency to name cheeses after girlfriends and Rachel is named after a friend he describes as “sweet, curvy and nutty.” Not unlike the cheese itself!
