Product details

TROU DU CRU 
Cow, Pasteurised - 40-70g
Sticky, savoury and slightly floral. Washed in Marc de Bourgogne, this baby brother of Époisses possesses the same pungent quality but can easily be consumed in one sitting. 

ROQUEFORT CARLES 
Sheep, Raw Milk - 215g 
Strong and sublime. Sweet, creamy paste with sharp, mineral pockets of blue. The only Roquefort house to produce their own penicillium roqueforti, extracted from rye loaves baked inhouse. Respect for tradition and quality is at the heart of this cheesemaking family.

TEMPLIER 
Cow, Raw Milk - 150g-180g
Delicate and buttery. The cheese is shaped like a shield, in reference to the Knights Templar military order who were active in the Languedoc area. Typically made from goats’ milk, the use of cows’ milk here is a creative twist.

COURONNE DE TOURAINE 
Goat, Raw - 130g-160g
A signature cheese for affineur Rodolphe le Meunier, the perfectly thin ashed rind encases a voluptuous paste.  Snowy to gooey, sweet and milky, yet savoury.  A 'crowning' triumph!

COMTÉ ST ANTOINE
Cow, Raw Milk, Vegetarian - 250g
Made in a village co-operative called a fruitière. At a few weeks old, this Comté enters Marcel Petite’s maturing rooms within the mountainside Fort St. Antoine. Fruity, mellow and nutty.

R Raw Milk

Strong and sublime. A sweet, creamy paste with sharp, mineral pockets of blue.

The most acclaimed producer of Roquefort, and the only one to make their own penicillium roqueforti, extracted from rye loaves baked in house. Respect for tradition and quality is at the heart of this cheesemaking family.

Couronne de Touraine

R Raw Milk

Snowy to gooey. Sweet and milky, yet utterly savoury.

A crowning triumph (pun intended!). A perfectly thin ashed rind encases a voluptuous paste, with flavours that so evoke the Loire Valley that they beg for the best Crémant de Loire you can find.

Freshly cut & wrapped

We unashamedly source, care for and sell the best cheese, because that is what we believe in. Our trained cheesemongers cut every piece to order, by hand, and wrap it in our waxed paper. We do this because it is the most respectful way to treat this precious food.
