Collection: Pregnancy Friendly Cheese

A concentrated flavour with vegetal sweetness. Walo receives these cheeses at four months’ old, and washes them for a full year so they retain moisture. The striking appearance comes from pockets of eyelets, which contain crystals.

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.)

Springy, slightly milky, and floral. The youngest version of this world famous cheese. Made from the milk of the extremely rare hardy little black sheep that are now close to extinction on the plains of La Mancha.

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.

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.

Buttery and earthy. This organic Welsh cheese is made by the Holden family from their own Ayrshire herd; and ‘Hafod’ is the Welsh word referring to the traditional changing of pastures for livestock between summer and winter. * Typically made with raw milk but may occasionally be made with pasteurised milk. Your piece of cheese will be clearly labelled.

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.

Complex and fruity. Unpasteurised Parmigiano Reggiano, matured until it is 30 months old for an extra flavour dimension. The cheeses are chiselled in the maturing rooms, and immediately packed to preserve their taste and texture.

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.

Creamy, and slightly crumbly in the core. The recipe was discovered in an attic by cheesemaker Alan Gray. Spell his surname backwards to see how the cheese got its unusual name. Local, hand-picked nettles provide its beautiful, lace-like appearance.
