England is a land well suited to dairy farming. Its territory is relatively flat, thus good for grazing, and it has plenty of rainfall. This country produces over 500 distinct types of cheese, including the four we are featuring in this English Cheese Assortment.
  • Denhay Mature Cheddar - Arguably the world's most famous cheese name, Cheddar is an authentic English cheese that has been copied all over the world. If you have never tasted authentic English Farmhouse Cheddar, you are in for a wonderful surprise. Aged at least 11 months. (8 oz.)
  • Royal Blue Stilton - How could such an assortment not include England's beloved blue cheese? Creamy, tangy and eminently satisfying, our Royal Blue Stilton is perfect as a snacking cheese or as an ingredient. (8 oz.)
  • Sage Derby - Don't be afraid of the green! Pulverized sage leaves are mixed with water then added to the curd of Derby cheese to create this striking example of English cheesemaking ingenuity. A mild and herbaceous cow's milk cheese, Sage Derby is the ultimate party cheese. (8 oz.)
  • Cotswold - Also known as "Pub Cheese," Cotswold is the name given to this hearty cheese that combines orange Double Gloucester cheese with flavorful bits of chive and onion. A harmonious blend of mellow, crumbly cheese and powerful vegetables, Cotswold is a terrific complement to the softer, more mild flavors on your cheese board. (8 0z.)
Assortment includes four 1/2 pound cuts of cheese.
  • Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.

Comments about English Cheese Assortment:

Great assortment of very flavorful cheeses. I always wanted to compare English cheeses to what we have here in the States, and there is no comparison. The English traditional cheese making produces a cheese with great tastes and textures.
