Tasting Notes:

As the oldest English cheese, Cheshire cheese is a hard, dense, semi-firm to firm cheese with a crumbly texture and a salty, sharp aftertaste. Almost cheddar-like but denser a bit more moist. 

It is said that the Romans built a wall around the production area of the cheese, which became the town of Chester, in order to protect it.

Pair with a Riesling.

Our cheese mongers hand cut every cheese to order. We will always try to cut the exact weight ordered, however your piece might be slightly over or under the amount listed. But please know that we cut it freshly and specifically for you.

If you order several cheeses, we will usually make up for shortcomings on weight, if any, on the other cheeses ordered.

All cheeses are wrapped in special cheese paper and sealed to preserve freshness during transit.

Every order includes all the necessary thermal packaging and ice packs required for current weather conditions. Our main focus is getting the freshest product delivered to your door.
