The Cheesemonger’s Notes

A fiery Red Leicester infused with chilli for warmth, depth, and bold character

Red Devil is a vibrant Red Leicester from Snowdonia Cheese Company, infused with warming chilli to create a cheese that balances rich creaminess with a lively kick of heat. Combining the natural sweetness and nuttiness of Red Leicester with carefully blended chilli, it delivers both flavour and excitement.

Made using high-quality milk and traditional methods, Red Devil retains the smooth, creamy texture that defines great Red Leicester. The addition of chilli enhances the cheese’s natural richness without overwhelming its balance.

The flavour begins with buttery, nutty depth before the chilli warmth gradually emerges. The heat builds gently, complementing rather than overpowering the cheese’s character. The result is a satisfying balance between richness, sweetness, and spice, with a warming, lingering finish.

Its striking red colour and distinctive wax coating make it visually impressive, while its bold flavour makes it a favourite for those who enjoy cheese with added character.

Cut to order at The Norfolk Deli, every piece is prepared fresh to ensure optimal flavour and condition.

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.
