Gone are the days when vegetarians had to settle for second best on their cheeseboards. Modern cheesemakers possess the necessary skill and know-how for creating artisan vegetarian cheeses that are filled with just as much complexity, character and ‘bite’ as anything made with animal rennet.

  1. Templegall
    New In
    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.

  2. Quicke's Goats' Milk Clothbound Cheese
    New In
    Firm bodied but with a rich, creamy mouth feel. Gently sweet with notes of almonds. Hand-made in the style of traditional Cheddar, but with local goats' milk, this cheese is clothbound and matured for around six months to develop a well-rounded character quite unlike other goats’ milk cheeses.

  3. Wild Garlic Yarg
    New In
    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.

  4. OG Goat
    New In
    ‘Fudgy’ and crystalline. ‘Caramel’ and ‘butterscotch’ finish. The ‘T Groendal farm already specialises in cow’s milk Goudas. This goats’ milk take on that recipe is enriched with a touch of cows’ cream and aged for eighteen months, yielding a bold and concentrated stunner.

  5. Drunk Monk
    New In
    ‘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.

    Rich with small crystals. A year-old Gouda that is out of this world – literally! Flown to the International Space Station for an astronaut who needed her fix, this mouthwatering taste of West Flanders is creamier than the Milky Way.

  7. Cashel Blue
    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.

  8. Zimbro
    Custard-like texture. Lemon and olive flavours. The perfect entry point for anyone yet to try a torta-style cheese. Its Spanish cousins can be pricey and overpowering. Zimbro is approachable and moreish, and comes from Beira Baixa in eastern Portugal.

  10. Mini Wigmore
    Smooth, milky and delicate. This is a washed curd cheese, which means that a proportion of whey is substituted with water during the make. This enhances the smoothness of the texture and the gentle delicacy of the flavour.

  16. Wyfe of Bath
    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.

    Milky and springy, and simultaneously sweet and savoury. The name ‘Halloumi’ is restricted by PDO, and so Tim Homewood and Angela Morris had to be creative when naming this cheese, but production is just as painstaking.

  29. Golden Cross
    A firm and silky texture and a fresh citrus flavour when young; and a denser, creamier and deeper flavour as it matures. Kevin and Alison Blunt’s goats feed on a diet of pasture and hay all year round, never silage. This natural diet results in high quality milk and a sublime and complex cheese.
