Unctuous under the rind, and a slight acidity of flavour. Langres has a characteristic dip at the top, which is caused by the fact that the cheese is only turned once during maturation. The dip is not, as some say, intended as a receptacle for Champagne.
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.
Supple and fruity. Rich dairy notes mature to fermented vegetal tones. Inspired by the classic Saint Nectaire, St. Helena is initially washed and then carefully rubbed and turned, allowing other moulds to colonise the surface, contributing more earthy flavours. Winner of Best Semi-Soft Cheese at the 2026 Artisan Cheese Awards.
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.
Earthy and full-flavoured, with protracted finish. A cheese in the style of Brie de Meaux, made by Jonny Crickmore at Fen Farm. From the cutting of the curds to using the traditional pelle-à-brie ladle, everything is done by hand.
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.
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.
