Cheese Delivery & Freshness

Whilst we always aim for prompt delivery, courier delivery dates cannot be guaranteed, and occasional delays do occur. The good news is that cheese is far more resilient than many people realise. Most traditional cheeses can comfortably withstand short transit delays and, in the vast majority of cases, delayed parcels arrive in excellent condition. If your parcel is delayed, simply refrigerate your cheese on arrival and allow it to come back to room temperature before serving. For more information, please see our Cheese Care Guide

The Cheesemonger’s Notes

A journey through Europe’s finest artisan cheeses

Explore the taste of Europe with The Continental Cheesemonger’s Selection, a carefully curated collection of award-winning continental cheeses chosen for their exceptional flavour, heritage, and craftsmanship. From creamy French classics to bold Alpine favourites and nutty Spanish traditions, this selection offers a true taste of the continent.

Perfect for entertaining, gifting, or simply indulging, each cheese has been handpicked by The Norfolk Deli to represent the very best of European cheesemaking — rich, varied, and utterly irresistible.

Inside this selection you’ll find:

  • Starnachas (approx. 250g) – A superb Swiss-style cheese aged to develop a nutty, savoury depth with subtle Alpine sweetness and a smooth, firm texture.

  • Grand Noir (approx. 250g) – A striking German blue cheese, encased in black wax with a luxuriously creamy texture and rich, mellow tang. A modern European masterpiece.

  • Drunk Monk (approx. 250g) – A robust, characterful washed-rind cheese bathed in brandy during maturation, giving it a deep aroma and a long, complex finish.

  • Pasteurised French Brie (approx. 250g) – Soft, bloomy, and buttery with gentle mushroom notes. A timeless French classic that defines continental indulgence.

  • Manchego (approx. 250g) – Spain’s most famous cheese, made from Manchega ewe’s milk. Firm, nutty, and delicately sweet with a satisfyingly crumbly texture.

  • Pack of artisan cheese crackers – Specially chosen to pair with both soft and hard continental cheeses.

  • Jar of The Garden Pantry chutney – Handmade in Norfolk, offering a perfect sweet and tangy balance to rich European flavours.

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 quality.

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

For expert advice on how to look after your cheese, visit our blog on cheese refrigeration and storage.

Packaging

At The Norfolk Deli, our focus is on quality and care, not fancy packaging. We don’t use decorative wicker hampers for our cheeseboards — instead, your cheeses are packed in appropriately sized boxes with ice packs and insulation, ensuring they arrive in perfect, tip-top condition, ready to enjoy.

The price includes postage and packing, as well as a personalised handwritten message, making this the perfect ready-to-send gift for any cheese lover.

  • Cheese Delivery Delayed?

    Cheese is a living, matured food. It is considerably more resilient than many people assume and was enjoyed for centuries before refrigerated transport existed.

Answering your everyday cheese questions

How long will this cheese last?

All cheeses are cut fresh at the counter and dispatched in insulated packaging.

For the best flavour, we recommend enjoying within 5–7 days of delivery. Hard cheeses may last longer if stored correctly.

How should I store this cheese?

Keep refrigerated in its original wrapping or waxed paper. Avoid airtight plastic containers. Always bring to room temperature 30–45 minutes before serving for the best flavour and texture.

Is this cheese suitable for freezing?

We don’t recommend freezing soft or blue cheeses as it can affect texture. Hard cheeses may be frozen for cooking purposes, but flavour is best when enjoyed fresh.

What if my cheese has mould on it?

Mould is a natural part of many artisan cheeses.

If the cheese is meant to have a white rind, blue veining or natural mould, this is completely normal and part of its character.

If you notice surface mould on a hard cheese, it can usually be trimmed away safely — simply cut at least 1cm around and beneath the mould.

If mould appears on a soft cheese that is not intended to have mould, or if you are unsure, please contact us and we will advise.

We only dispatch cheeses in excellent condition, selected at peak maturity.

Is this cheese safe during pregnancy?

Pasteurised cheeses are generally considered safe. If a cheese is unpasteurised, this will be clearly stated in the Key Facts section. If unsure, please consult current NHS guidance

Can I request a specific size?

Weights are approximate to ensure fairness and quality. If you require a specific size for an event, please contact us before ordering.

Can this cheese be included in a hamper or cheeseboard selection?

Yes. Many of our cheeses are available in curated cheeseboards, gift hampers or our Cheesemonger’s Selection.
