More information about the cheeses that make up each tier:
Top Tier: BABY BARON BIGOD Handmade in Suffolk by Fen Farm Dairy, this is the smaller sister of Jonny Crickmore's Baron Bigod. Made in small batches to a Brie de Meaux recipe, it’s silky at its rind but crumbly at its core. The Suffolk-born, traditional Brie-style cheese balances a clean lactic brightness with mushroomy, vegetal notes.
First Tier: MINI COLSTON BASSETT STILTON Colston Bassett Dairy in Nottinghamshire make an absolutely delicious blue stilton using cow's milk that comes from local farms within 1.5 miles of the dairy. The cheese has a beautiful mellow flavour and is creamy yet tangy without being too acidic.
Base Tier: MATURE CHEDDAR TRUCKLEHandcrafted on the Quicke's, Devon estate using milk from our grass-fed Quicke's breed cows, clothbound and naturally matured, typically for 6 months. Creamy and buttery with hints of brothy to grassy to caramel notes.
