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.

Rich, with mineral tones. The caves of the Massif Central are renowned for blue cheese maturation. Unlike its Southern cousins, this cheese is matured to form a thin natural rind, and is in this way closer to Stilton.

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

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.

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.

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.)

Clean and buttery, with a decadent texture. Enriched with a touch of cream, this mixed milk robiola is utterly luscious. Accompanied by a chilled glass of Moscato d’Asti, it’s Piemontese summer on a plate.
