A World of Flavour in Every Wedge
From the crystallised bite of a cellar-aged hard cheese to the melting richness of a triple-cream washed rind, our counter represents generations of traditional dairy craft.
Ripened to Absolute Perfection
We do not simply stock cheese; we care for it. Every wheel and block that enters our counter is monitored, turned, and kept at exact temperature and humidity until it reaches the peak of its expression. Whether you prefer a gentle, grassy profile or a fierce, robust bite, our selection is always served exactly when it is ready to be enjoyed.
Counter Highlights & Tasting Notes
A rotating glimpse of what is currently ripe on our boards.
-
Traditional Clothbound Hard
Matured for 18 Months
Earthy, deep, and surprisingly sweet on the finish. A brittle texture that yields satisfying calcium crystals with every bite.
Perfect Pairing: Ploughman's Chutney & Crisp Apple -
Golden Washed Rind
Pungent & Meaty
Not for the faint-hearted. A sticky, orange exterior gives way to a supple, savoury paste that tastes heavily of roasted nuts and cured meat.
Perfect Pairing: Stout or Amber Ale -
Ash-Coated Soft Goat
Bright & Citrusy
A stark white interior contrasted by a natural ash rind. The flavour is highly acidic and fresh when young, turning delightfully gooey under the rind as it ages.
Perfect Pairing: Truffle Honey & Sourdough -
Creamy Blue-Veined
Rich & Peppery
A masterclass in balance. The rich, butter-like paste mellows the sharp, metallic spice of the blue veining running generously throughout.
Perfect Pairing: Walnuts & Dark Chocolate

Hard & Matured
Characterised by lower moisture and extended aging, these sturdy wheels offer robust flavours ranging from sweet caramel to sharp, savoury intensity.
Soft & Bloomy
Delicate, snowy white rinds encase centers that range from chalky and fresh to luxuriously runny.
The Blues
Pierced to allow air into the paste, promoting the growth of spicy, aromatic veining that contrasts beautifully with rich milks.
Washed Rinds
Brushed or washed regularly with brine or alcohol, these pungent varieties develop striking, sticky exteriors and remarkably tender, complex interiors.
