Berkswell
milk type
Sheep
coagulant
Animal Rennet
milk treatment
Raw
Berkswell is a hard ewe’s milk cheese with a complex sweetness. Its gentle tang and slightly granular texture often draw comparisons with the Spanish cheese Manchego.
Colston Bassett Stilton
milk type
Cow
coagulant
Animal Rennet
milk treatment
Pasteurised
A blue for those who ‘don’t like blues’, the Stilton we buy from Colston Bassett is made exclusively for Neal’s Yard Dairy. Gentler, sweeter and more balanced than a ‘typical’ blue cheese, it boasts a creamy, buttery paste pierced with the delicate blue veining characteristic of a Stilton.
Dorstone
milk type
Goat
coagulant
Animal Rennet
milk treatment
Pasteurised
This turret-shaped goat’s cheese combines a light, fluffy texture with bright, citrusy flavours and a gentle acidity.
Minimum: 180g.
Gorwydd Caerphilly
milk type
Cow
coagulant
Animal Rennet
milk treatment
Raw
A densely crumbly centre presenting fresh, lemony flavours gives way to a creamy, more mushroomy layer beneath the edible rind – the happy result of this Caerphilly being matured for longer than most Caerphilly cheeses made today.
Lincolnshire Poacher
milk type
Cow
coagulant
Animal Rennet
milk treatment
Raw
West Country Cheddar meets Comté in this cheese, which typically boasts a smooth, densely creamy texture and flavours that can range from rich, savoury and brothy to long, sweet and almost pineapple-like.

Cow
coagulant
Animal Rennet
milk treatment
Pasteurised
A Camembert-style cheese characterised by truffley, garlicky and vegetal flavours and a creamy and unctuous paste.
