This Month's Cheeses
The Neal’s Yard Dairy Subscription showcases three different cheeses each month, connected in some way by a location, season, recipe or occasion. As we reach November, the end of the year is almost in sight. The clocks have changed and as dark nights take over, it's time for bonfires, fireworks and sparklers. Wrap up warm and chance a late autumn picnic, or invite everyone round yours, and enjoy this month’s selection, in all its comforting glory. Gorwydd Caerphilly tastes great in an apple pie with the last of the apple season, but even better in hunks on its own. St Cera is a favourite at Neal’s Yard Dairy, spooned over toasted bread with a little bit of chutney. Sparkenhoe Red Leicester works well added to a fondue for a rich unctuous dip. And last but not least, by savouring this cheeseboard, you are helping to support the makers of British and Irish cheese, preserving time-honoured cheesemaking traditions and fostering exciting new ones too. We hope you enjoy them.

About the Subscription Hub
The cheese we work with is strongly founded in a sense of community, from cheesemakers sharing recipes and tips, to the shared efforts of maturation between cheesemaker and affineur, to the departments within Neal's Yard Dairy tasting and talking about cheese together on a daily basis. The NYD subscription hub aims to bring this sense of community to our loyal subscription customers - a place to discover, discuss and delight in the cheeses you receive each month.
