SOUTH WEST FRANCE CHEESE BOARD

South West France is the hidden treasure of France, stretching across a rugged landscape to the border of Spain.  Their cheeses have a distinct taste and texture giving them a full bodied fruit and nut taste.  We source direct from farmer/cheesemakers and our work in refining them in our cooled and humidity controlled rooms brings them to a perfect point for you to enjoy.  It is our aim to showcase the terroir - the land - and how cheese is so much a part of this as well as being so delicious

• Mothais a la Feuille | Poitou-Charentes. Goat, Unpasteurised.  I unit (110g). A thick, whole disc covered in a protective sycamore or vine leaf. 
• Napoleon |  Hautes Pyrénées, Ewe, Pasteurised. 250g. In the style of other Pyrénées ewe's milk tommes (such as Ossau), but with a softer texter and nutty tang.
• La Nauc |  Aveyron.  Ewe, Thermised. 250g. Lightly washed in brine and matured in natural, humid cellars, which gives the cheese its subtle, but distinct character.
• Bleu de Basque   |  Pays-Basques, Pyrénées, Ewe, Pasteurised. 250g. An unusual cheese from the mountain region of Pays-Basques. This is a semi-hard cheese with the blue veins "parsleyed" through the dense, rich, mellow cheese. A rare treat as blue cheeses are not normally made in this area.
