Rind Washed Cheese

Cheese with attitude — washed, ripe & remarkably rich

Rind-washed cheeses are bold, expressive, and proudly unapologetic. Regularly washed during maturation with brine, wine, beer, or spirits, these cheeses develop their unmistakable aroma and deeply savoury character through a carefully controlled ageing process that rewards patience and expertise.

Beneath their pungent, often sticky rinds lies the real magic — soft, yielding textures and intensely rich, meaty flavours that deepen as the cheese warms. From iconic continental classics such as Époisses, Taleggio, and Stinking Bishop to outstanding Norfolk-made examples like Tawny, St Cera, and Gurney Gold, this collection celebrates cheeses that challenge expectations and captivate the senses.

Complex, indulgent, and utterly compelling, rind-washed cheese is made for those who seek flavour with depth and personality. A favourite of adventurous cheese lovers and seasoned connoisseurs alike — because sometimes the most memorable cheeses are the ones with a little funk.
