What’s in the box?

Nidelven Bla - 180g

The World Cheese Awards Supreme Champion 2023. Named for a local river, this blue cheese is made on a family farm along “The Golden Road” of the lush Inderøy Peninsula, an area known for some of Norway’s best food. The Nidelven Blå itself is unique for a soft blue, aged for a minimum of six months.  This long ripening yields a cheese with a gentle and plump texture when young, that becomes yielding as it ages.  The straw-yellow paste is buttery and rich, becoming sweet with a spiced finish as it matures.

Cave Aged Gruyère - 250g

This Kaltbach cave aged Swiss Gruyère is matured for 12 months to develop a stronger flavour and delicious aroma. Gruyère is a very famous, well-known cheese, and thanks to the AOC standards accredited to the cheese, it is only allowed to be produced in Switzerland.

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.

Stärnächäs Extra Mature - 150g

Produced at the foot of the Säntis mountain near Appenzell, Stärnächäs has a flavour that sits somewhere between a Gruyère and an Appenzeller. The texture is slightly supple and smooth, with only the occasional crystal and a few small holes found within the paste. The sweetness is not as intense as that of an aged Gruyère, as the cheese is aged for only eight months. However, there is a quality about the flavour combined with the texture that makes it hard to stop going back for just one more nibble.
