What's Included
Fourme D'Ambert Xavier Morin
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.

Soft and yielding, with a creamy flavour. The cheese of choice for Admiral Lord Nelson and his family, having frequent references in their correspondence. The original recipe recommended using a feather to apply salt to the surface.

Ragstone
Smooth in texture, with a lemony note in the flavour. Kent’s quarries are known for a hard grey limestone called Ragstone. Charlie Westhead’s first dairy was nearby but thankfully this Ragstone is soft and creamy.

Brillat Savarin
Rich, ice cream texture. Buttery, with crème fraiche notes maturing to meaty ‘mushroom’. The Lincet family have been making cheese in Burgundy for the past 125 years, and this utterly decadent triple cream is a speciality. The smaller cheeses have a marvellously thin geotrichum rind, while the larger cheeses pick up the spicier flavours of a downy white penicillium coat.

Epoisses Gaugry
Rich, meaty and spicy but counterbalanced by an edge of floral sweetness. With a silky, sometimes liquid centre and a spicy, piquant aroma, it is not hard to believe the urban myth that carrying this cheese is banned on the Paris Métro.

FAQs
What makes The Fine Cheese Co. unique?
We select and mature traditionally-made artisan cheeses from independent producers who prioritise quality over profit.
For over thirty years we have nurtured and supported the cream of British cheesemakers, and we played an integral role in the revival of traditional British cheesemaking in the early 1990s.
We produce our own range of Partners for Cheese, and our cheese and partners are supplied to hundreds of UK retailers and exported to over 50 countries world-wide.
Who are the founders of The Fine Cheese Co.?
We were founded in 1990 by Ann-Marie Dyas, a renowned judge at both the British and World Cheese Awards and winner of the Guild of Fine Food Lifetime Achievement Award. Ann-Marie was committed to the survival and growth of traditional cheesemaking and to introducing and sharing farmhouse cheeses, as well as the stories behind them, to as wide a public as possible.
Ann-Marie's mission was "To seek out the best, and, when it’s been found, to keep looking". This same tireless pursuit of excellence is the core value across the company.
From the producers we choose to work with to the coffee we serve in our café, we want to give the best possible experience, while continuing to find ways to improve upon it.
