Collection: Cows' Milk Cheese

A thin and wrinkled rind, an earthy fragrance, and a vegetal flavour. Described by Raymond Blanc as “the best Camembert in the world”, but the quality of the cheese will convince any Frenchman that it was made on his terroir.

Rich and velvety smooth. Sweet, with mineral tones and winey spice. Made under the watchful eye of Billy Kevan, only the fourth Head Cheesemaker of the dairy since 1920, and a watchword for consistency. Colston Bassett Stilton is the only remaining exclusively hand-ladled Stilton.

Full-flavoured, with a hint of sweetness. A sweet and tangy Cheddar cheese with a particularly creamy texture and an occasional crystal caused by long maturing.

Full-flavoured, a hint of sweetness, and a subtle smokiness. A mature, West Country Farmhouse Cheddar, with a delicately smoky flavour and tangy bite. Cold-smoked over real oak chips to give a natural flavour with no harsh notes.

Rich, ice cream texture. Buttery, with crème fraiche notes maturing to meaty ‘mushroom’. The Lincet family have been making cheese in Burgundy for the past 125 years, and this utterly decadent triple cream is a speciality. The smaller cheeses have a marvellously thin geotrichum rind, while the larger cheeses pick up the spicier flavours of a downy white penicillium coat.

Earthy but moist, and slightly sweet. Cloth-wrapped, hand-made Dorset Cheddar, cave-aged in Somerset for a depth of flavour and a moist texture. It is fruity and tangy with a rich, deep flavour and a hint of sweetness.

Fruity, smooth, mellow and nutty. Made in a small, village-based co-operative called a fruitière. At a few weeks' old, this Comté then enters Marcel Petite’s maturing rooms where it is regularly turned, brushed and rubbed.

Soft and yielding, with a creamy flavour. The cheese of choice for Admiral Lord Nelson and his family, having frequent references in their correspondence. The original recipe recommended using a feather to apply salt to the surface.

Dense and savoury. A traditional, cloth-wrapped, unpasteurised Cheddar cheese, made in Somerset by Jamie Montgomery. * Typically made with raw milk but may occasionally be made with pasteurised milk. Your piece of cheese will be clearly labelled.

A velvety-soft texture and a rich tangy flavour. Handcrafted the traditional way, using a recipe passed down through three generations of the Skailes family. Unlike the rest of their production, this traditional rennet Stilton is hand-ladled, producing a cheese that is richer and creamier, with a deep and complex flavour.

Soft and creamy with a wrinkled rind. More buttery in winter, and more vegetal in summer. Julie Cheyney told us this cheese was named after the patron saint of lost causes. Clearly St. Jude was listening; this cheese is heaven-sent.

Powerful and tangy. At least an extra six months spent in the family's maturing rooms gives this Cheddar even more stunning complexity and richness. * Typically made with raw milk but may occasionally be made with pasteurised milk. Your piece of cheese will be clearly labelled.

Glossy, yielding paste. Gently sweet and buttery. Originally made with Guernsey milk from the nearby Duke of Wellington’s estate, home to the family since it was acquired by the first Duke, a few years after the battle of Waterloo in 1817.

Smooth, supple and buttery. Pungent from a cider wash.

Awarded 'Best Traditional Cheddar' and 'Best Cheddar' at The British Cheese Awards 2025, and'Best Traditional Cheddar' again in 2026 . Meaty and succulent. An artisan Somerset Cheddar made by Todd and Maugan Trethowan, just seven miles from Cheddar Gorge. Moist and succulent in texture, it is full-flavoured with a hint of tropical fruit.

A fabulously full-flavoured Brie-style cheese, hand-made in Suffolk by Jonny Crickmore from the milk of his own herd of Montbeliarde cows.

Complex and grassy. Westcombe Cheddar cheese is a traditional cloth-wrapped Cheddar, hand-made in Somerset, with a complex, grassy flavour. * Typically made with raw milk but may occasionally be made with pasteurised milk. Your piece of cheese will be clearly labelled.

Sticky, savoury and slightly floral. Washed in Marc de Bourgogne, this baby brother of Époisses possesses the same pungent quality but can easily be consumed in one sitting. Helpful for avoiding an ‘aromatic’ fridge.

Luxurious, ice-cream texture that matures from crème fraîche to clotted cream. The addition of double cream makes this cheese hard to resist. Made by Rose Grimmond, a relation of Ian Fleming of James Bond fame. But don’t just keep it For Your Eyes Only.

Rich and velvety smooth. Sweet, with mineral tones and winey spice. Made under the watchful eye of Billy Kevan, only the fourth Head Cheesemaker of the dairy since 1920, and a watchword for consistency. Colston Bassett Stilton is the only remaining exclusively hand-ladled Stilton.

Creamy, and slightly crumbly in the core. The recipe was discovered in an attic by cheesemaker Alan Gray. Spell his surname backwards to see how the cheese got its unusual name. Local, hand-picked nettles provide its beautiful, lace-like appearance.

Dense, spicy and mouth-filling. First made in the caves of Valassina in Gorgonzola, by travelling cow herders in the 9th century. CasArrigoni select the cheeses that will have a sharper taste and denser consistency than their Dolces, and age them for longer too.

Crumbly, with a little acidity. Cheshire is one of Britain’s oldest cheeses, but production almost stopped entirely after WW2. Lucy Appleby brought the cheese back in the 1950s, and it remains the only exclusively raw milk Cheshire.

Silky smooth. Washed in brine and cider. Cider from Yarlington Mill apples from Herefordshire has helped David Jowett make a cheese in Gloucestershire, reminiscent of Reblochon from the Haute-Savoie in France. Fromage sans frontières. Reserve Champion and Best Export Cheese at the British and Irish Cheese Awards 2026

Crumbly when young. Matures to become richly creamy, ‘honeyed’ and piquant. Cashel Blue is named after the Rock of Cashel, which overlooks the Grubb family farm on the Tipperary plains. Made since 1984, this is Ireland’s most famous blue cheese.

Glossy and smooth, with a wrinkled rind, this pasteurised Brie offers a rich texture and a lightly vegetal, mushroomy flavour. Made in small batches by the third-generation Dongé family in Meuse, it is a fine example of French Brie.

Earthy and full-flavoured, with protracted finish. A cheese in the style of Brie de Meaux, made by Jonny Crickmore at Fen Farm. From the cutting of the curds to using the traditional pelle-à-brie ladle, everything is done by hand.

Rounded and smooth, rich and buttery, with a refreshing acidity. Made in a micro-dairy in the town of Wensley, this is England’s only raw milk Wensleydale that is actually made in Wensleydale.

Norway's most famous cheese. Dense and fudgy. Flavours of caramel and buttermilk with a lingering cream finish.

Selected by award-winning affineur Rodolphe Le Meunier, this soft-ripened Camembert is made from pasteurised cow’s milk. Its bloomy rind encases a rich, glossy paste with buttery, earthy flavours and delicate mushroom notes.

Aroma of honey. Rich and creamy texture. Nutty flavour. A star by name and nature, as Stärnächäs, made at the foot of Alp Säntis by Kaserei Gabriel, gets its name from the ‘heavenly pleasure’ it provides.

Aroma of mountain meadows. Sweet and gentle flavour. Alp Blossom’s simply stunning appearance ensures this cheese will be the belle of the ball on any cheese platter. The rind is coated in a mix of scented flowers and herbs.

Ice-cream texture. Begins fresh and milky, and ripens to earthy and salty. Made in Burgundy since the Middle Ages, this cheese is prized for its snowy texture and trickling cream line. The long, slow set comes from the farmers’ historical habit of leaving their morning milk to rest as they went out to tend to their grapes.

Earthy and full-flavoured, with protracted finish. A cheese in the style of Brie de Meaux, made by Jonny Crickmore at Fen Farm. From the cutting of the curds to using the traditional pelle-à-brie ladle, everything is done by hand.

Rich, creamy and spoon-able. Translated literally, ‘Gorgonzola al Cucchiaio’ means ‘Gorgonzola with a Spoon’, which is how it is eaten in Lombardy.

Nutty and mellow in flavour, and flaky in texture. Bound in cloth, and ripened for six months on beechwood shelves, this is the only hand-made raw milk Red Leicester. (The traditional orange-red colour is annatto, derived from the seeds of the achiote tree.) Typically made with raw milk but may occasionally be made with pasteurised milk. Your piece of cheese will be clearly labelled.

Rich and aromatic. Melt-in-the-mouth texture. Inspired by Persian Fetta (softer, creamier and more buttery than the Greek), Graceburn is steeped in vivid yellow, coldpressed, British rapeseed oil, infused with thyme, garlic, bay and pepper.

A unique cross between a Cheddar and an Alpine recipe gives this cheese a fine balance of savoury to sweet tones.

Rich, ice-cream texture. Light and fresh, then ripening to include ‘mushroom’ notes. Made in the style of a French double-cream cheese, and named by cheesemaker Charlie Westhead after his dog.

Winner of Best Organic Cheese at the 2026 Artisan Cheese Awards. Awarded 'Champion Retailer Product' at The British Cheese Awards 2025. Moist and smooth, floral and grassy. Sweet tones balanced by bolder farmy notes. Made from milk from the farm’s own herd, and matured in hay, which is hand cut from a diverse grass and wildflower meadow and dried on the farm, Witheridge in Hay is a unique distillation of place and time.

Creamy yellow, with a rich, buttery-crumble texture. A truly old-fashioned Lancashire made traditionally with a two-day curd recipe. (Curd from a second day’s milk is added to that from the first, to produce a more complex flavour.)

Moist, fresh, clean and gently garlicy. Made to the same recipe as the original but wrapped in handpicked wild garlic leaves foraged from Cornish woodlands in Spring. Over time, the aromatic leaves influence the young curds, allowing the delicious garlic flavours to permeate the cheese.

Boozy aroma. Silky smooth texture. ‘Caramel’ flavour. This cheese has quite the life, as its maturation involves a regular wash in a brine of red wine and herbs.

Rich, meaty and spicy but counterbalanced by an edge of floral sweetness. With a silky, sometimes liquid centre and a spicy, piquant aroma, it is not hard to believe the urban myth that carrying this cheese is banned on the Paris Métro.

Intensely rich and creamy, with a sweet caramel and deep umami flavour. An unabashed, unashamed and unadulterated attempt to recreate the British blues of yore, made to an historic recipe and with raw milk. Not a Stilton, but impressive nonetheless.

Single cream and light vegetal notes. In 2014, Bath Blue was judged ‘Supreme Champion’ at the World Cheese Awards. The competition was fierce, with 2,600 cheeses from 33 countries vying for the top spot, but none could beat this brilliant blue.

A concentrated flavour with vegetal sweetness. Walo receives these cheeses at four months’ old, and washes them for a full year so they retain moisture. The striking appearance comes from pockets of eyelets, which contain crystals.

Aromas of meadow flowers and dried fruit. Walo ages this remarkable Gruyère in one of his famously warm and humid cellars, so helping it to maintain the moisture needed to develop such an array of complex flavours.

Supple and fruity. Rich dairy notes mature to fermented vegetal tones. Inspired by the classic Saint Nectaire, St. Helena is initially washed and then carefully rubbed and turned, allowing other moulds to colonise the surface, contributing more earthy flavours. Winner of Best Semi-Soft Cheese at the 2026 Artisan Cheese Awards.

Soft and spreadable texture, and mellow flavour. A different style of blue cheese created by the current generation of the Skailes family, master Stilton makers for 160 years.

Lusciously rich and headily aromatic. The addition of black winter truffle and a drop of truffle oil elevates this delicious Persian-inspired cheese to heights of decadence that would please even the King of Kings, Cyrus the Great.

Supple and savoury, and melts brilliantly. A cheese was named ‘shield’ after an ancient bronze shield was unearthed near the farm. It was renamed ‘Ogleshield’ after Bill Oglethorpe suggested washing the rind, so creating a British take on Raclette.

A soft caramel colour, and a creamy and nutty flavour. Hand-made close to us with milk from the farm’s herd and originally named Beauty of Bath. We suggested ‘Wyfe of Bath’ because, in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, the Wyfe had an insatiable appetite for pleasure.

Full-flavoured, with honeyed undertones. A unique Raclette made in the Jura mountains and matured by Affineur Walo, it is utterly divine melted over pork, potatoes and pickles.

Complex and fruity. Unpasteurised Parmigiano Reggiano, matured until it is 30 months old for an extra flavour dimension. The cheeses are chiselled in the maturing rooms, and immediately packed to preserve their taste and texture.

Rich, velvety, and spoonably soft, Vacherin Mont d’Or has a luscious, buttery texture with deep savoury notes and a gentle, resinous aroma from its spruce bark.

Rich and heady. Jonny Crickmore combines his cultured double cream with Tartuflanghe summer truffle cream from The Fine Cheese Co. and places them in the centre of a Baron Bigod. *A whole Truffled Baron Bigod weighs approximately 1kg. 250g and 500g are a cut of a whole cheese.

Bright and lactic at the centre with a savoury note of mushrooms near the rind. 'Super Gold' Winner for two years in a row at the World Cheese Awards (2022-2023).

The World Cheese Awards Supreme Champion 2023. Buttery and rich. Gentle and plump when young; yielding, sweet, and spiced when mature.

‘Mushroom’ and ‘meaty’ flavours. A rich, firm cheese, made from sweet, Alpine milk. It is traditionally served in shavings cut by a Girolle.

A fresh, slightly citrus flavour that delicately balances the richness of the milk. First hand-made some 40 years ago in the coachyard of the 18th century Sharpham House, from the milk of Jersey cows brought by train from Essex to a valley overlooking the River Dart. From estuary to estuary.

Smoke meets grassy notes to produce an even more complex flavour. The cheese is most smoky near the nose, but the more complex, classic Cheddar flavours and grassy notes become more evident towards the rind.

Creamy and buttery with a pleasant peppery warmth.

Creamy, and slightly crumbly in the core. The recipe was discovered in an attic by cheesemaker Alan Gray. Spell his surname backwards to see how the cheese got its unusual name. Local, hand-picked nettles provide its beautiful, lace-like appearance.

Dense, savoury and salty. First made in 17th century France, when war saw the banning of all Dutch products including Gouda. Cheese mites, usually the bane of a cheesemonger’s life, are encouraged here so as to create the cheese’s pockmarked surface.

Dense but crumbly, and mellow but savoury. Britain’s only raw milk Shropshire Blue, inspired by Stilton but more akin to Cheshire in texture. Made by Will Clarke, son of David and Jo Clarke, celebrated makers of Sparkenhoe Red Leicester.

Fudgy and floral. Malty and meaty. A classic Trappist-style cheese with a twist. Cheesemaker Johan Deweer initially washes this cheese in REX Belgian Blonde Ale, letting hints of malt and hops marry with this already funky wheel.

Supple and fruity. Historically, cheesemakers would make curd from evening milk, then sprinkle a protective layer of ash on top. The next morning they would make another curd to add to the previous evening’s cheese.Unfortunately, Morbier is currently out of stock. This is due to a temporary ban on the import of French and Italian raw milk soft and semi-soft cheeses due to an outbreak of a disease in cattle. There have been minimal cases, but DEFRA are maintaining a very cautious approach to protect our British herds. Suggested Alternative: Ashcombe.Made in Gloucestershire by celebrated cheesemaker, David Jowett, this cheese shares the distinctive ash line running through the core of the cheese and a similar milky paste and savoury rind. It is also a former Supreme Champion of both the British and Artisan Cheese Awards., A supple-textured, unpasteurised French cheese, with a characteristic line of ash running through it.

Firm and flinty. Dried or tropical fruit notes balanced by deep savoury brothy tones. ** Please note, earliest delivery available for this cheese is the 6th of March

Mountain forest aroma. Rich and fudgy texture. Earthy flavour. A true Tomme de Savoie, from a time before the rise of industrialised cheesemaking. Redolent of a woody wonderland, this is a cheese of great structure and complexity. Unfortunately, Brie de Meaux is currently out of stock. This is due to a temporary ban on the import of French and Italian raw milk soft and semi-soft cheeses due to an outbreak of a disease in cattle. There have been minimal cases, but DEFRA are maintaining a very cautious approach to protect our British herds.

Pliable and slightly crystallised. Joseph Paccard select their Beauforts every September to release at the age of twelve months. They then release them in consecutive batches, each one a month older than the last.

Creamy caramel with a slight piquant note.

Smooth and supple. Notes of ‘walnuts’ and ‘meadow flowers’. The flagship cheese of Haute-Savoie. The green label indicates that this is the rare farmstead variety, and it has been washed twice by Fromagerie Joseph Paccard, leading to an intoxicating aroma of leather and spruce. Unfortunately, Reblochon is currently out of stock. This is due to a temporary ban on the import of French and Italian raw milk soft and semi-soft cheeses due to an outbreak of a disease in cattle. There have been minimal cases, but DEFRA are maintaining a very cautious approach to protect our British herds.Suggested Alternative: YarlingtonLovers of Reblochon will surely enjoy this British washed rind cheese with a blush coat and a plump and glossy interior.

Smooth and mouth filling, with notes of brown butter and roasted nuts. Supreme Champion winner at The Artisan Cheese Awards. A truly special cheese, made only in the summer months, and, even then, only when the milk is just right. The Hegarty’s French cheesemaker has brought more than a hint of the Franche-Comté to the Cork countryside.
