What’s in the box?
Tomme de Savoie - 200g
Tomme de Savoie hails from the picturesque mountainous region of Savoie. Made from semi-skimmed raw milk, and colloquially known as "skinny cheese," Tomme de Savoie boasts a clean, milky, and buttery flavour. Its suede-like natural rind imparts an earthy aroma, contributing to the cheese's distinctive mushroomy notes.
Beaufort d’Été - 250g
The Beaufort is a member of the Gruyère family: in fact, it was called “the Prince of Gruyères” by Mr. Brillat Savarin. Beaufort is very appreciated for its fruity flavour and its creaminess, and is thus a cheese with a marked taste, without being overpoweringly strong. An indicator for the high quality are small cracks in the paste. The flavour of this hard cheese is delicate and fullbodied. Matured from 12 to 20 months. Unpasteurised cow’s milk.
Comté Marcel Pétite 30+ months aged- 180g
Dense, crystalline texture with an intense ‘beefy’ and nutty texture. This Comté is a special maturation of limited quantity. It is matured for nearly three years in the mountainside Fort St. Antoine, it begins to look like a pockmarked stone itself. This is a Comté at its most concentrated and complex.
Brie De Meaux - 150g
Protected by an AOC, Brie de Meaux Donge is one of the finest French Bries. It has a smooth, runny texture and a strong yet creamy flavour. Etienne Donge set up the dairy in 1930 and his great grandchildren Luc and Jean-Michel run it today.

HOW I KEEP | Keep refrigerated, keep wrapped, serve at room temperature, use within 12 days.
IMPORTANT | All our cheeses are cut to order and may not be to an exact weight/measurement, but we will never underweight your cheese.
