The Cheesemonger’s British Cheese Choice

An expertly curated collection of Britain’s finest artisan cheeses

From the windswept Cornish coast to the green pastures of the Cotswolds, The Cheesemonger’s British Cheese Choice celebrates the best of British cheesemaking — a handpicked selection of exceptional artisan cheeses chosen for their depth, diversity, and craftsmanship.

Curated by The Norfolk Deli, this collection brings together eight award-winning cheeses from some of Britain’s most respected dairies — a perfect balance of soft, hard, and blue styles representing the Best of British flavour and tradition.

Whether you’re entertaining, gifting, or indulging, this cheeseboard captures everything that makes British cheese truly world-class.

Inside this collection you’ll find:

• Doddington (approx. 250g) or Cheesemaker’s Special (approx. 250g) – Depending on availability, this will feature either Doddington, an award-winning farmhouse cheese from Northumberland with a nutty, Alpine-style depth, or Cheesemaker’s Special from Alsop & Walker in Sussex, a limited-batch creation selected for its outstanding balance and texture.

• Cornish Yarg (approx. 250g) – From Lynher Dairies, Cornwall. A semi-hard cow’s milk cheese hand-wrapped in nettles, developing a creamy, fresh flavour with a hint of earthiness.

• Colston Bassett Stilton (approx. 250g) – Made in Nottinghamshire by Colston Bassett Dairy, this classic blue cheese is creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced, offering the true taste of traditional Stilton.

• Woodside Red (approx. 250g) – Crafted by Alsop & Walker, East Sussex. A vibrant Red Leicester-style cheese with a sweet, nutty character and beautiful deep orange colour — smooth, mellow, and full of flavour.

• Tunworth (approx. 250g) – Produced by Hampshire Cheese Company. Often described as the British Camembert, this soft, bloomy-rind cow’s milk cheese is luxuriously creamy with gentle mushroom and earthy notes.

Freshness & storage

Most cheeses are hand-cut to order, and while every effort is made to be as accurate as possible, the quoted weights are approximate. Cheeses are cut on the day of dispatch or at most the day before, ensuring maximum freshness and flavour.

Cut cheeses carry a minimum shelf life of 10 days from the date of cutting.

At The Norfolk Deli, we focus on quality and care — not decorative packaging. Your cheeses are packed in insulated boxes with ice packs to ensure they arrive in perfect condition ready to enjoy.

The price includes postage and packing, along with a personalised handwritten message, making this a thoughtful, ready-to-send gift for any cheese lover.
