A True taste of Norfolk
You choose the style. We choose the cheese.
Sometimes the best cheeseboard isn’t the one you build yourself.
It’s the one chosen by the people who taste cheese every single day.
Our Cheesemonger’s Selection is a curated box of 3 or 5 cheeses, cut fresh from our counter and selected at peak condition. Each portion typically ranges from 150g–250g, giving you a board that’s ready to enjoy.
You won’t know exactly what you’re getting — and that’s the point.
Every selection is built around balance, flavour progression and seasonality. From soft and creamy to rich, complex and occasionally bold, we choose what’s tasting exceptional the day your order is prepared.
No filler. No duplicates. No supermarket standards. Just properly chosen cheese.
Perfect Pairings
- Artisan crackers & oatcakes
- Norfolk chutneys & relishes
- Charcuterie & cured meats
- A good bottle of wine or Norfolk beer
👉 Add our Norfolk Chutney Selection and Norfolk Beer Selection to create a complete cheeseboard experience.

You can trust us
The Norfolk Deli was the first cheese retailer in Norfolk to be recognised as one of the country’s inspirational independent cheesemongers.
For over 12 years we’ve lived and breathed cheese — tasting constantly, working closely with producers, and understanding how seasonality, milk and maturation shape flavour.
We’ were of the few to be invited by the French Dairy Board to Paris, Tours and the Salon du Fromage, connecting directly with European producers and affineurs.
How Your Selection Is Built
Each box is designed around balance and progression.
Depending on your chosen Flavour Profile, we’ll create a board that flows beautifully:
- Crowd Pleasing - Creamy, accessible, beautifully balanced cheeses ideal for gatherings and gifting.
- Balanced & Mixed - A thoughtful journey from soft to hard, mild to punchy — the way we’d build a board at home.
- Bold & Punchy - Washed rinds, expressive blues, deeper aged profiles and cheeses with character.
No two selections are ever exactly the same
