Cheese of the Month Subscription
Our Cheese Subscription is a great way to explore the world of British farmhouse cheese, and a perfect gift for adventurous cheese lovers. It is ideal for people who enjoy entertaining or those who like having a few hearty pieces of cheese to hand for both cheeseboards and cooking. Each delivery will include four different cheeses weighing at least 1.1kg in total.
If your subscription is a gift, and you would like the future delivery notifications to be sent directly to your recipient, please do get in touch.
PLEASE NOTE: the picture displayed contains Riseley - orders dispatched after 21/1/21 will contain Wigmore instead, the unwashed version of the same cheese.

Delivery Information
Standard delivery is free to most postcodes in the UK for orders over £29.50. Click here for a list of postcodes where additional delivery charges apply.
Collection from our London shops is free - choose Shop Collection at checkout.
Select your preferred delivery date at checkout. As we use third party couriers (typically DPD) we cannot guarantee the arrival day of your order but we will do our best to ensure that it arrives as close as possible to your chosen date. To be sure it arrives in time, we suggest choosing a date a couple of days ahead of when you would like to eat your cheese.
If you have ordered a cheese subscription, your second and subsequent deliveries will occur approximately 30 days after your first delivery date.
"I think cheese is the perfect present. There are few people who don’t love it, it lasts well and good cheese is a real treat. It is the ultimate spoiling." Thomasina Miers

A Roquefort-style cheese created with goat’s milk, Harbourne is a clean, bright cheese with light blue veining, a crumbly texture and flavours which are fresh, slightly floral and delicately sweet.



Montgomery's Cheddar

Cow
coagulant
Animal Rennet

Raw
Rich, brothy, savoury flavours are the hallmarks of the Cheddars we select from Montgomery’s. Drier and more stratified than most of the Cheddars we sell, its almost crystalline nature makes it melt in the mouth.
Clothbound with lard.

Sheep
coagulant
Vegetarian Coagulant

coagulant
Vegetarian Coagulant
milk treatment
Thermised
Flavours range from mild and milky to meaty and nutty depending on age. The paste is creamy and soft beneath the rind, chalky and firm in the centre.
