Christmas With A Twist
£35.50
Supplied by: The Courtyard Dairy | Delivery Details
Four unique and different cheeses to grace your cheeseboard and get the family talking this Christmas: mellow, ‘buttery’ Rollright, tangy and powerful Vintage Sparkenhoe, Ireland’s answer to Manchego, Cáis na Tíre, and Devon Blue, a modern British blue, minerally and gently piquant.
This cheese selection box includes:
Rollright. Pasteurised cows’ milk. 250g.
A mellow, buttery, ‘washed-rind’ cheese that expresses the rich and diverse clover pasture of Chedworth’s Manor Farm. It is based on the classic French cheese ‘Reblochon’ and encircled in a spruce band that helps hold it together and adds a pine-y note to the cheese.
Sparkenhoe Vintage. Unpasteurised cows’ milk. 250g.
The only unpasteurised farmhouse red Leicester made in the world. This Sparkenhoe vintage version is aged for 18 months, which gives it a strong, powerful flavour.
Devon Blue. Pasteurised cows’ milk, vegetarian. 210g.
Devon Blue was one of the first modern British blue cheeses, created by Robin Congdon in the 1970s. Unpressed, French-style, it is sold by The Courtyard Dairy at four months old, when it is flinty, minerally and light with a subtle blue taste.
Cais na Tire. Pasteurised sheep’s milk. 250g.
Barry & Lorraine Cahalan make this unique cheese with sheep’s milk from on their small farm in County Tipperary. Cáis Na Tíre is aged on-site until it’s six months old. At this age it develops rich, toasty and caramel notes as the sweetness of the sheep’s milk starts to display: like the finest aged Pecorino and Manchego’s of the Continent.
